Sūtra translation

(Even in the case of the wise, it it not the rule that he should do what is prohibited) ; for the scriptural statement is either for the glorification of knowledge or of (the wise), or is a concession.

It is not the rule, it is meant to glorify the wise, or meant to be only a concession ; (and this view is reasonable), for there is reasonable difference (caused in the fruit of knowledge by the performance of acts permitted or prohibited by Scripture).
