Celibacy for the clergy did not come into vogue until about 1100; the early
priests of the church married, as to the Anglican and the Greek churchmen
today.
Bishop and member of the court of the Frankish king Theodebert II of Austrasia, sometimes called Arnuiph or Arnulf of Metz. A noble, Arnulf married Doda, and their son was Ansegisel. Ansegisel married Beggia, the daughter of Pepin of Landen, starting the Carolingian dynasty of France. Doda became a nun, and Arnulf made plans to enter a monastery but was named the bishop of Nletz around 616. He continued his court services, making Clotaire of Neustria the king of Austrasia. He also served as counselor to Dagobert, King Clotaire's son. In 626, Arnulf retired to a hermitage at Remiremont, France.

Charlemagne's greatest contribution to the advancement of learning was the
establishment of schools. Prior to his time education had been private, but he
now decreed that it should be the concern of established schools.
The schools resulting from Charlemagne's effort are divisible into three kinds.
There was, first of all, the Palatine school connected with the royal court.
Its pupils were at first drawn from court circles, but other students were
admitted later on. Some modern scholars see the palace school as one of the
precursors of the later universities. Then there was the Episcopal or
Cathedral school, which, directed by a bishop or master, ws largely for those
destined for the pristhood. But by far the most important and enduring was the
Monastic school, which conducted classes for the younger members of the monastic
community as well as for students coming grom without. So important were the
monastic schools that the two centuries after Charlemagne have been described
as the Monastic (or Benedictine) centuries. (copied Philosiphy in the Middle
Ages p.12)
