He might peradventure have permitted them to have passed. and that safely, although not all of them together, but by bands. But seeing the first reason before alleged is sufficient, we must not much labour for Augustine's sake.

1But now I will generally declare, what manner of war is counted just. Such a war is counted just, which is taken in hand at the commandment of the Magistrate, either to demand things again, or else to put away injuries, or to revenge them, as it is had in the .23. question, the .2. chap. justum, and they are the words of Isidorus. 2For first we must beware that war be not taken in hand by the authority of a private man. But the causes wherefore war may justly be made, are these, to require things taken away, or else to repulse injury. Whereunto is agreeable that which Augustine writeth in the same place in the chapter Dominus: 3Just war is that which is taken in hand to revenge injuries. After this manner war is justly proclaimed against Cities, when they will not either render things taken away, or amend those things which of theirs was unjustly done. For if they will not punish the guilty, it is lawful for other to make war against them. So all Israel took war in hand against Benjamin, that a most filthy wicked crime should not remain unpunished. But Augustine addeth, that those wars also do in especial seem just, which are taken in hand by the commandment of God, as are many which were done in the old Testament. For if God command once to make war, we must not seek for any other cause of justice. For God knoweth very well what is to be rendered unto every man. For then both captain and soldiers are not so much to be counted authors of the war, as ministers of God & of his law. And therefore when the people are after this manner called to war, they ought not to neglect the commandment.
