""The Institute of the Jesuits and Their Vows of Obedience"" by Henry Hadley Norris is a comprehensive exploration of the Jesuit Order and their vows of obedience. The book delves into the history and founding of the Society of Jesus, the religious order established by Ignatius of Loyola in the 16th century, and their role in the Catholic Church. The author examines the Jesuit's unique approach to spirituality, which emphasizes obedience to the will of God as expressed through the hierarchy of the Church. He explores the significance of the vows of poverty, chastity, and obedience that Jesuits take when entering the order, and how these vows shape their lives and work.Norris also discusses the controversies that have surrounded the Jesuits throughout history, including their involvement in politics and their perceived influence over the papacy. He examines the role of the Jesuits in education, missionary work, and social justice movements, and how their obedience to the Church has shaped their approach to these endeavors.Overall, ""The Institute of the Jesuits and Their Vows of Obedience"" provides a detailed and insightful look into the history, beliefs, and practices of one of the most influential religious orders in the Catholic Church.THIS 66 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Principles of the Jesuits, by Henry Hadley Norris.
