Notes

1.

ce usually means ‘if’, but there is no consequent clause. In this case it seems to indicate that the story is hypothetical. From this section until Mv.IX.7.15 Mv.IX.7.15, no verdict is given on the transactions done. The following sections seem to be intended to provide the answer, i.e., that the transactions in this section are all invalid. Perhaps the purpose is to show that Saṅgha transactions should be taken seriously: When there are disagreements over the validity of transactions, it is important to determine which side(s) are speakers of Dhamma and which side(s) are speakers of non-Dhamma.
