St. Benedict was never a priest. At times he lived the life of a hermit, abbot, founder of monasteries but never a priest.
Monks lived in secluded communities and focused on contemplation and prayer, following a strict routine set by the rule of their order, while friars were itinerant preachers who traveled and worked in the community, focusing on helping the poor and spreading the teachings of the church. Monks typically lived in monasteries and owned communal property, while friars lived in friaries and took vows of poverty.
Some types of monks include Benedictine monks, Franciscan monks, and Trappist monks. Each type of monk belongs to a different religious order with its own set of customs, practices, and rules.
It is a time when monks pray and sing hymns in E flat minor (the key of Jesus). Then the priest will talk about the holy lord and recite the Benedictine rules. The priest would then talk about the sins comitted that day and pass on the Lords forgiveness to the sinner.
Benedictine monks were called black monks because of the color of their traditional black robes or habits. The term "black monks" was used to distinguish them from the Cistercian monks, who wore white robes and were known as the "white monks."
Desiderius Erasmus of Rotterdam wrote Stultitiae Laus,know in English as In Praise of Folly.It is an essay written in Latin in 1509 and first printed in 1511.
Roman Catholic AnswerPriests and monks are entirely different vocations, although some monks are called to be priests, one becomes a monk because one has a vocation to the monastic lifestyle NOT because they want to become a priest. So to answer your question, no, a priest does not have to be a monk first, or ever.

In the Catholic Church, a priest is a male who has been ordained into the priesthood. This means he has the authority to say Mass, and to conduct the Sacraments of Baptism, Reconciliation/Penance, Anointing of the Sick, and the Eucharist, and to witness the sacrament of Marriage. A monk takes a vow of poverty, chastity and obediance, just as a priest does, but he does not have the authority to say mass, administer communion, hear confessions, and conduct the other sacramental duties of a priest. A monk is still considered to be a lay person, as he is not a priest.
Kateri Tekakwitha was a virgin and never married. Priests and monks, likewise, do not marry.
There is no such thing as a Buddhist priest, as in the sense of Christianity. There are Monks, who have dedicated their lives to the Dharma to become enlightened. These monks may perform certain rituals and may teach others as needed. But Monks, in general, study the teachings (the Dharma), meditate, and do the chores needed in daily life.
For the priest robes you go to the clothes shop in varrock and they sell em. for monks robes you go to the monostary (prayer guild) and upstairs if you have 32 prayer you can get them free from a table.
