Matrimonio e sacramento dell'ordine nella Chiesa primitiva
"In the early Church it frequently happened that married men were admitted to the priesthood. This explains the statement found in many synodal decrees that clerics may have in their homes their own daughters. Marriage aftcr ordination to the priesthood was definitely forbidden (Neocaesarea, canon 1; Apost. canon 26; Apost. Const., VI, 17). Among the lower orders of the clergy it was admitted. Deacons were permitted at the reception of the diaconate to state their intention to marry, without incurring any disqualification. If they remained silent and did not so express their intention, and married after the reception of that order, they were disqualified (Ancyra, Canon 10).
