The Prayer of Saint Benedict is a Christian prayer that is used in the Liturgy of the Hours. It is also known as the “Greater Exhortation” or “Longer Monastic Rules”, because it was originally longer than its present form, which was adapted from the Rule of St. Benedict in the 6th century.
The prayer was written by Pope Leo IV (847 – 850), who was born into a noble Roman family. He became pope at age 25 and died 31 years later, having accomplished much for the Church in his short papacy. Pope Leo IV was known for his devotion to Saint Benedict, whom he regarded as his spiritual father, so he wrote this prayer in honor of him and included it in his writings on monasticism.
Prayer in Spanish comes in a lot of different forms. The most widely known Prayer in Spanish is the rosary, with one set of mysteries for the rosary each day for one year. There are also seven decades of the rosary, and nine days of prayer. With all these options, it’s hard to keep track of them all and still maintain consistency, which is why I made this Prayer in Spanish chart .
