Dear Marijim,

Two notes:
1) in the later middle ages, there was a lot of "Hildegard" writings
around that weren't actually hers. Most of them go back to Egeno von
Eberbach's "digest" of Hildegard. For the French tradition, you
should contact Mme Prof. Dr. Laurence Moulinier.
2) I have a feeling that behind the expression is the Latin word
"incredulis" which someone took as two words ("in credulis"). In
this reading, Antichrist will inscribe his sign on the unbelievers
("incredulis") on their foreheads.
Best wishes,
Christoph
