Working as a monk is? (2,5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

in order

I believe this is a double definition.

'working' is the first definition.
(I've seen this before)

'a monk is?' is the second definition.
(I've seen this before)

'as' is the link.

(Other definitions for in order that I've seen before include "as many nuns are" , "Appropriate in the circumstances" , "neat" , "As expected" , "one after another" .)
