Book summary

Drawn up 1500 years ago by St. Benedict as a guide for his monastic brethren, the Rule's simple, straightforward injunctions for the spiritual ordering of both community and individual life have made it a model of monastic discipline.

Publisher Notes


Since the 6th century, this has been one of the most influential documents of Western thought and civilization. Full of plain wisdom, the words of St. Benedict are a guide for work, prayer, study, and community life.



This study on the ancient Rule of St. Benedict contains an invaluable, in-depth Introduction that explores the development and spread of Christian monasticism, a biographical sketch of St. Benedict, and the structure and implementation of his rule.
