About the ban on bringing meat into the temple.
We learned that in the Armenian country it also happens that some, after boiling pieces of meat, bring selected parts to the sacred altars and give them to the priests according to Jewish custom. Therefore, protecting the integrity of the Church, we forbid priests to accept special parts of meat from those who offer, but let them be content with what the offerer would like to give, given that such an offering will be made outside the church. If anyone does this wrong, let him be excommunicated.
Greek original
Καὶ τοῦτο δὲ ἐν τῇ Ἀρμενίων χώρᾳ γίνεσθαι μεμαθήκαμεν· ὥς τινες ἔνδον ἐν τοῖς ἱεροῖς θυσιαστηρίοις μέλη κρεῶν ἔψοντες, προσάγουσιν, ἀφαιρέματα τοῖς ἱερεῦσιν Ἰουδαϊκῶς ἀπονέμοντες. Ὅθεν τὸ τῆς ἐκκλησίας φυλάττοντες ἀκηλίδωτον, ὁρίζομεν, μὴ ἐξεῖναί τινι τῶν ἱερέων ἀφωρισμένα κρεῶν μέλη παρὰ τῶν προσαγόντων λαμβάνειν, ἀλλ᾿ οἷς ἀρεσθῇ ὁ προσάγων, τούτοις ἀρκείσθωσαν, ἔξω τῆς ἐκκλησίας τῆς τοιαύτης γινομένης προσαγωγῆς. Εἰ δέ τις μὴ τοῦτο οὕτω ποιῇ, ἀφοριζέσθω.
