On the Imputation of Adam's First Sin · §384

Man. Post. Cap. VII: GAR — parental crime can descend to unborn / nephews

lly, he assumes something false who supposes that parents' crime is never imputed to those yet to be born, or to grandsons: seeing that examples to the contrary are ready in plenty. For infamy, and deprivation of honors, and exile not infrequently descend even upon the grandsons of traitors. Which Scripture's examples will afterward also make plain.

Latin

GAR. Denique falsum assumit, qui supponit parentum crimen nunquam nascituris, aut nepotibus imputari: cum exempla in contrarium suppetant bene multa: Infamia enim, & honorum privatio, & exilium etiam in nepotes perduellium non infrequentur descendunt. Quod & Scripturae exempla postea manifestum facient.
