The Three Orders
Some of the important ceremonies conducted by the Church copied formal customs of the feudal elite.
The act of kneeling while praying, with hands clasped and head bowed, was an exact replica of the way in which a knight conducted himself while taking vows of loyalty to his lord. Similarly, the use of the term ‘lord’ for God was another example of the feudal culture that found its way into the practices of the Church.
Thus, the religious and the lay worlds of feudalism shared many customs and symbols.
