The ordination of Priests. This sacrament can only be performed by Bishops and above, in the hierarchy structure. This restriction may have been put in to prevent any schismatic society of Priests giving each other ( Battlefield Commissions) as was done with Medieval Knights- any Knight above the rank of Sir, well could commission a worthy Squire in the Field! Ordination ( Holy Orders) and Confirmation can only be performed by Bishops- and above.
