Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Commentary on the New Code of Canon Law, Vol. 1: Introduction and General Rules (Can. 1-86)
Explanation. - a) In this definition the laws of the entire Church only are, per se, considered, viz. Those laws which touch upon the whole body as such and em anate from the supreme authority (ins commune). Hence laws made for a particular portion of the Church or its members are outside our subject except in so far as they form part and parcel of the body of common law. However, since these particular or special rules need the explicit or implicit consent of the supreme law giver, and rest on the interpretation of law in general, it is evident that even these particular laws must, to some extent at least, be taken into consideration.
