四分律行事鈔資持記 3.1051

3.1051

第三引緣中，《善見》。盡往，即是初制；次後兩開，並為止絕世譏，以法兼濟故。《四分》。難陀教尼，至日暮，尼在祇桓城塹中止宿，為俗譏訶。（西土，僧居蘭若，尼止城中；因往僧寺，至暮還城，城門已閉，因宿塹中。）故知初開尼往僧寺，但不如論次第顯著，故云無文意同。

In the third, citing the origins: in the Samantapāsādikā, 'all went' refers to the initial prohibition; the next two exceptions were both to put an end to worldly criticism, so that they could be aided along with the Dharma. In the Dharmaguptaka-vinaya, Nanda instructed the nuns until evening; the nuns stayed overnight in the moat of the city near Jetavana, and were criticized and mocked by the laity. (In the Western lands, monks dwelt in araṇyas, while nuns resided within the city; having gone to the monastery, when they returned to the city at evening, the city gates were already closed, so they spent the night in the moat.) Thus we know the first exception for nuns going to the monastery, only it is not as clearly sequential as in the treatise; hence it says 'lacking a text, but the intention is the same'.
