四分律行事鈔資持記 1.391

1.391

篇意中，上二句明刊定是非。剋，削也。浮言即目凡語。以古來集法，及世中秉唱，竝容加減，故須刊正；疏云削彼繁蕪，增其遺漏是也。既雜浮言，隱覆聖教；故今剪削，還復顯揚故也。次二句正示篇意。上句述文，下句開機。題云通辨，義見於此；進否謂如非成敗。科分謂緣法條流。後二句勸臨事依承。

In "Intent of the Chapter": the upper two clauses clarify the determination of correctness and error. 'Chisel away' (*ke*) means to cut out. 'Superfluous words' refers specifically to mundane speech. Because from antiquity compilations of legal procedures and contemporary recitations both allowed additions and subtractions, it was necessary to edit and correct them. The *Commentary* states: 'Cutting away that luxuriant weediness, and supplementing those omissions'—this is it. Since superfluous words were mixed in, obscuring the noble teaching, now they are pruned away to bring it to light once again. The next two clauses directly show the intent of the chapter: the upper clause sets forth the text; the lower clause opens up understanding for the faculties [of the practitioners]. The title says 'General Analysis', the meaning of which is seen here. 'Acceptance or rejection' refers to correctness or error, success or failure. 'Sections and divisions' refers to the branches and streams of conditions and legal procedures. The final two clauses exhort reliance and compliance when undertaking the matters.
