Religious institutes generally follow a rule of life, i.e., one of the great religious rules as guidance to their life and growth in their religious journey. These are: the Rule of St. Basil , the Rule of Saint Benedict , the Rule of Saint Augustine , and the Rule of Saint Francis . [ 1 ]
The Rule of the Master was written two or three decades before Benedict of Nursia's the Rule of Saint Benedict. [1] Unlike the Rules of Pachomius, which are a collection of regulations, instructions, and prohibitions concerning the life of the community, the Rule of the Master contains precise regulations but also a theological and spiritual reflection showing the reason for the regulations.
The author of the Rule of Saint Benedict, which was the principal monastic code in Western Europe in the early Middle Ages, was Saint Benedict of Nursia (c. 480 –550). Under this Rule the lives of the monks were mainly devoted to prayer, together with reading sacred texts and manual work.
Æthelwold was also the sole translator of Rule of Saint Benedict, which was included in the Regularis Concordia. He was an appropriate leader for the passion needed to helm the English Benedictine Reform. He had a reputation for being "as terrible as a lion" to the rebellious and for zealously fighting corruption in the church. [8]
