I want to know the answer to the following question:
What did previous religious orders do for a living?
All the background I'm provided with is that "Dominic sought to establish a new kind of order, one that would bring the dedication and systematic education of the older monastic orders like the Benedictines to bear on the religious problems of the burgeoning population of cities, but with more organizational flexibility than either monastic orders or the secular clergy.". Is that enough to answer the question?
Answer: no
