Command religious society (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

order

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

This clue could be a double definition.

'command religious' is the first definition.
'order' can be an answer for 'command' (I've seen this before). I'm unsure of the 'religious' bit.

'society' is the second definition.
(I know that society can be written as order)

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for order that I've seen before include "Instruct" , "goods supplied" , "Instruction - arrangement" , "peace" , "Command; social class" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
