I believe there are two sentences in the excerpt that reflect the main character's uneasiness with his family history, and those are:

</span>2. <span>His mother had once tried to explain the paper to him, but he hadn't wanted to listen.</span>

Explanation:
1. St. Paul writes in the First Letter to the Thessalonians: "...this is the will of God, your sanctification: that you abstain from unchastity, that each one of you know how to control his own body in holiness and honour , not in the passion of lust like heathens who do not know God" (1 Th 4:3-5). After some verses, he continues: "God has not called us for uncleanness, but in holiness. Therefore whoever disregards this, disregards not man but God, who gives his Holy Spirit to you" (ibid. 4:7-8). We referred to these sentences of the Apostle during our last meeting. We take them up again today because they are especially important for the subject of our meditations.
Hope this help
