[26] Bossuet, Sermon on unity.
[27] [Greek: poimahinein], gubernare, to govern, the particular word which our Lord employs to convey His powers to Peter, is also the particular word which gives such offence to temporal governments, when acted on by Peter: [Greek: bhoskein], pascere, to feed, they find more endurable, and probably they would all be content, from the heathen Roman emperors to the present day, to allow the Church to feed, so long as they are allowed to govern the faithful. The objection on the part of the Church is, that our Lord gave both to Peter.
