digamy. In the early Church, those who married again after the death of their first spouse were regarded with disfavour. The Council of Nicaea (325) insisted that they should not be excluded from Christian fellowship. The E. Church has always been more severe in the matter than the W., and even now the nuptial blessing is not given in the same form as for a first marriage.
