the Jurisdiction of Confessor According to Code Canon Law

"The Jurisdiction of the Confessor According to the Code of Canon Law" is an authoritative and scholarly examination of the legal and theological principles governing the administration of the Sacrament of Penance. Written by Rev. James P. Kelly, this work provides an in-depth analysis of the jurisdictional requirements necessary for a priest to validly and licitly hear confessions and grant absolution under the 1917 Code of Canon Law.The text meticulously explores the various facets of power-both ordinary and delegated-required by the minister of the sacrament. It addresses critical topics such as the territorial limits of jurisdiction, the faculties granted to religious and secular clergy, and the special provisions made for cases of necessity or danger of death. By clarifying the complex legal framework of the Church, Kelly ensures that the spiritual welfare of the faithful is protected through proper canonical procedure.This volume serves as an essential resource for canon lawyers, theologians, and students of church history. It offers a clear window into the disciplined structure of the Catholic Church's penitential system during the early twentieth century, emphasizing the delicate balance between ecclesiastical law and the pastoral care of souls.
