『おふでさき註釈』、p. 10

三一、これまでに、親神が残念至極に思っておった事は、何であるかと言えば、それは足の障りに就いてである。

Commentary by Yoshitaro Ueda (2008)

From Michi no dai: Foundation of the Path 32:40

1:31 The term “regret” suggests a feeling of impatience. What God is feeling impatient at is the “lameness of [ Shuji’s] leg.” He is said to have had rheumatism or gout.
