Blasphemy, apostasy, idolatry, and the sexual sins of fornication, adultery, and homosexuality were to be reported to and handled by elders (or priests).
Teotusest, ususalgamisest, ebajumalateenistusest ning seksuaalset laadi pattudest, nagu hooramine, abielurikkumine ja homoseksualism, tuli teatada vanematele (või preestritele), kes siis neid patte käsitlesid.
