We must now inquire about the seal of confession, about which there
are five points of inquiry:
(1) Whether in every case a man is bound to hide what he knows under
the seal of confession?
(2) Whether the seal of confession extends to other matters than
those which have reference to confession?
(3) Whether the priest alone is bound by the seal of confession?
(4) Whether, by permission of the penitent, the priest can make
known to another, a sin of his which he knew under the seal of
confession?
(5) Whether he is bound to hide even what he knows through other
sources besides?
