Definition
A member of a religious community living in a monastery or convent; an alternative spelling of 'coenobite' or 'cenobite.'
Etymology
From Greek 'koinos' (common) and 'bios' (life), referring to living a common or communal life. The term describes monastic communities following shared rules.
Kelly Says
Early Christian cenobites revolutionized monasticism by living in organized communities with shared meals and prayers—before this, most monks were hermits living completely alone in deserts!
