Orders Of Wisdom
The Orders of Wisdom (French: ''Ordres de Sagesse'') is the contemporary designation for the high Masonic degrees of the French Rite. Originally designated as ''Ordres supérieurs'', they were published in 1801 in a compendium entitled ''Le Régulateur des Chevaliers maçons'' (The Regulator of Knight Masons) ''or Les Quatre ordres supérieurs'' (Four Superior Orders)'', according to the regimen of the Grand Orient''. The Orders of Wisdom were codified by the Chamber of Grades and the Grand Chapter General of France between 1783 and 1785 under the impetus of Alexandre Roëttiers de Montaleau, and subsequently integrated into the Grand Orient de France (GODF) on February 17, 1786.
