De divortio Lotharii Regis et Theutbergae Reginae (850 - 860) Hincmar of Reims |
| Quotation |
(cf. Augustinus, Quaestiones in Heptateuchum 5, 36): Hoc quidem putari potest iniustum, nisi intellegamus genti et populo ista dici, non uni homini. Sed ex alia itaque gente refugientem ad istam gentem, cui loquebatur, hominem a domino suo, id est a rege suo, reddi prohibuit; quod etiam alienigena servavit rex Geth, quando ad eum refugit David a facie domini sui, hoc est regis Saul. |
| Translation |
p. 208: Indeed this could be thought unjust, unless we understand this is said to a nation (gens) and a people (populus), not to one man. So, it is prohibited returning a man from one gens fleeing from his lord, that is his king, to that gens to whom this was addressed. For also King Geth preserved the foreigner when David fled to him from the face of his lord, that is King Saul. |
