medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture I'm just trying to figure out what Raymond of Aguilliers was referring to. At the very end of his description of the taking of Jerusalem, following the famous description of "crusaders riding in blood to the knees and bridles of their horses," and the surrendering of the Tower of David to Raymond (of St Gilles), Raymond (of Aguilliers) says a few thigns; the "pilgrims" rejoice at the HolySepulchre; He says "I further state that this day ended all paganism, confirmed Christianity and restored our faith. 'This is the day which the Lord has made; we shall rejoice and be glad in it," and deservedly because on this day God shone upon us and blessed us." And then a little bit later, he writes "This day, the Ides of July, shall be commemorated to the praise and glory of the name of God, who in response to the prayers of His church returned in faith and blessing to His children Jerusalem as well as its lands which he had pledged to the Fathers. At this time, we also chanted the Office of the Resurrection, since on this day He, who by His might, arose from the dead, restored us through His kindness." cecilia On Mon, Apr 2, 2012 at 10:25 AM, Kurt Sherry <[log in to unmask]> wrote: > medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture > > July 15?
