DUTY, natural law. A human action which is, exactly conformable to the laws
which require us to obey them.
2. It differs from a legal obligation, because a duty cannot always be
enforced by the law; it is our duty, for example, to be temperate in eating,
but we are under no legal obligation to be so; we ought to love our
neighbors, but no law obliges us to love them.
3. Duties may be considered in the relation of man towards God, towards
himself, and towards mankind. 1. We are bound to obey the will of God as far
as we are able to discover it, because he is the sovereign Lord of the
universe who made and governs all things by his almighty power, and infinite
wisdom. The general name of this duty is piety: which consists in
entertaining just opinions concerning him, and partly in such affections
towards him, and such, worship of him, as is suitable to these opinions.
4.-2. A man has a duty to perform towards himself; he is bound by the
law of nature to protect his life and his limbs; it is his duty, too, to
avoid all intemperance in eating and drinking, and in the unlawful
gratification of all his other appetites.
5.-3. He has duties to perform towards others. He is bound to do to
others the same justice which he would have a right to expect them to do to
him.
