Validity of Making Land Religious by All Parties' Consent

Passage 1806 of 9271 · Latin

Summary

It states that with the consent of all parties, it is more useful to hold that a place can become religious, as also written by Pomponius.

[PAULUS libro uicensimo septimo ad edictum. ] §11.7.3.prEx consensu tamen omnium utilius est dicere religiosum posse fieri, idque Pomponius scribit.
[PAULUS in the twenty-seventh book on the Edict.] However, it is more useful to say that with the consent of all, it can become religious, and Pomponius writes this.

Notes

  1. §11.7.3.prreligiosum posse fieri — In this accusative-and-infinitive clause (the object of dicere), the subject accusative of posse fieri is omitted and must be supplied as 'the place' (locum) or 'the field' (agrum) from the context of the preceding fragment (§11.7.2.9). 'religiosum' serves as the predicate accusative after the copulative infinitive fieri.
