Prologue A[1] A[2] A[3] A[4] A[5]
We must now inquire about the seal of confession, about which there are five points of inquiry:
A[1] Whether in every case a man is bound to hide what he knows under the seal of confession?
A[2] Whether the seal of confession extends to other matters than those which have reference to confession?
A[3] Whether the priest alone is bound by the seal of confession?
A[4] Whether, by permission of the penitent, the priest can make known to another, a sin of his which he knew under the seal of confession?
A[5] Whether he is bound to hide even what he knows through other sources besides?
