The Holy Lance, also known as the Lance of Longinus (named after Saint Longinus), the Spear of Destiny, or the Holy Spear, is the lance that is alleged to have pierced the side of Jesus as he hung on the cross during his crucifixion. As with other instruments of the Passion, the lance is only briefly mentioned in the Christian Bible, but later became the subject of extrabiblical traditions in the medieval church. Relics purported to be the lance began to appear as early as the 6th century, originally in Jerusalem. By the Late Middle Ages, relics identified as the spearhead of the Holy Lance (or fragments thereof) had been described throughout Europe. Several of these artifacts are still preserved to this day.

Holy Lance relics have typically been used for religious ceremonies, but at times some of them have been considered to be guarantees of victory in battle. For example, Henry the Fowler's lance was credited for winning the Battle of Riade, and the Crusaders believed their discovery of a Holy Lance brought them a favorable end to the Siege of Antioch. However, in many conflicts the army or government that possessed a lance relic was instead defeated, as in the Sasanian conquest of Jerusalem, the sack of Constantinople, the Battle of Mühldorf, and the French Revolution.

In the modern era, at least four major relics are claimed to be the Holy Lance or parts of it. They are located in Rome, Vienna, Vagharshapat and Antioch. The most prominent Holy Lance relic has been the one in Vienna, adorned with a distinctive gold cuff. This version of the lance is on public display with the rest of the Imperial Regalia at the Hofburg.

Biblical references

Шаблон:Main

The lance (Шаблон:Lang-el, Шаблон:Transliteration) is mentioned in the Gospel of John,[1] but not the Synoptic Gospels. The gospel states that the Romans planned to break Jesus' legs, a practice known as Шаблон:Lang, which was a method of hastening death during a crucifixion. Because it was the eve of the Sabbath (Friday sundown to Saturday sundown), the followers of Jesus needed to "entomb" him because of Sabbath laws. Just before they did so, they noticed that Jesus was already dead and that there was no reason to break his legs ("and no bone will be broken"[2]Шаблон:Efn). To make sure that he was dead, a Roman soldier (named in extra-Biblical tradition as Longinus) stabbed him in the side.

Шаблон:Blockquote

The name of the soldier who pierced Christ's side with a Шаблон:Transliteration is not given in the Gospel of John, but in the oldest known references to the legend, the apocryphal Gospel of Nicodemus appended to late manuscripts of the 4th century Acts of Pilate, the soldier is identified as a centurion and called Longinus (making the spear's Latin name Шаблон:Lang).[3]Шаблон:Rp[4]Шаблон:Rp

A form of the name Longinus occurs in the Rabula Gospels in the year 586. In a miniature, the name Шаблон:Small is written above the head of the soldier who is thrusting his lance into Christ's side. This is one of the earliest records of the name, if the inscription is not a later addition.[5]

Relics

Файл:S. LONGINO, Bernini.jpg
Statue of Saint Longinus by Gianlorenzo Bernini (1638)

A Holy Lance relic is preserved at Saint Peter's Basilica in Vatican City, in a loggia carved into the pillar above the statue of Saint Longinus.[6][7]

The earliest known references to Holy Lance relics date to the 6th century. The Breviary of Jerusalem (circa 530) describes the lance on display at the Church of the Holy Sepulchre.[8]Шаблон:Rp[3]Шаблон:Rp In his Expositio Psalmorum (ca. 540-548),[9]Шаблон:Rp Cassiodorus asserts the continued presence of the lance in Jerusalem.[10] A report by the Piacenza pilgrim (ca. 570) places the lance in the Church of Zion.[11]Шаблон:Rp[12] Gregory of Tours described the lance and other relics of the Passion in his Libri Miraculorum (ca. 574-594).[13][14]Шаблон:Rp

In 614, Jerusalem was captured by the Sasanian general Shahrbaraz.[15]Шаблон:Rp The Chronicon Paschale says that the Holy Lance was among the relics captured, but one of Shahrbaraz's associates gave it to Nicetas who brought it to the Hagia Sophia in Constantinople later that year.[15]Шаблон:Rp[16]Шаблон:Rp However, De locis sanctis, describing the pilgrimage of Arculf in 670, places the lance in Jerusalem, at the Church of the Holy Sepulchre.[17]Шаблон:Rp Arculf is the last of the medieval pilgrims to report the lance in Jerusalem, as Willibald and Bernard made no mention of it.[18]Шаблон:Rp

By the middle of the 10th century, a lance relic was venerated in Constantinople at the Church of the Virgin of the Pharos.[19]Шаблон:Rp[16]Шаблон:Rp[20]Шаблон:Rp The relic was likely viewed by some of the soldiers and clergy participating in the First Crusade, adding to the confusion surrounding the emergence of another Holy Lance at Antioch in 1098.[21]Шаблон:Rp During the Siege of Tripoli, Raymond of Toulose reportedly brought the Antioch lance to Constantinople, and presented it to Emperor Alexios I Komnenos.[22]Шаблон:Rp[16]Шаблон:Rp Scholars disagree on how this presumably awkward situation was resolved. Steven Runciman argued that the Byzantine court regarded the Antioch relic as a nail (ἧλος), relying on Raymond's ignorance of the Greek language to avoid offending him.[21]Шаблон:Rp Alternatively, Edgar Robert Ashton Sewter believed that Alexios intended to denounce the crusaders' lance as a fraud,[23]Шаблон:Rp and that this was accomplished when Prince Bohemond I of Antioch was compelled in 1108[16]Шаблон:Rp to swear an oath to him on the other lance.[23]Шаблон:Rp Whether Alexios kept the Antioch lance or returned it to Raymond is uncertain.[21]Шаблон:Rp Several 12th century documents state that a single Holy Lance was among the relics at Constantinople, without any details that could identify it as either the crusaders' discovery or the Byzantine spear.[24][25][26][27]Шаблон:Rp[28]Шаблон:Rp

According to Alberic of Trois-Fontaines, a fragment of the Holy Lance was set into the icon that Alexios V Doukas lost in battle with Henry of Flanders in 1204.[29]Шаблон:Rp The capture of this icon by Henry's forces was considered important to many contemporary sources on the Fourth Crusade.[30]Шаблон:Rp In addition to the crusaders' report to Pope Innocent III,[31]Шаблон:Rp the incident was documented by Geoffrey of Villehardouin,[32]Шаблон:Rp the Devastatio Constantinopolitana,[33]Шаблон:Rp Niketas Choniates,[34]Шаблон:Rp Robert de Clari,[30]Шаблон:Rp Ralph of Coggeshall,[35]Шаблон:Rp and Robert of Auxerre.[36]Шаблон:Rp However none of these sources mention the icon bearing any relics, whereas Alberic claimed it was adorned with the lance fragment, a portion of the Holy Shroud, one of Jesus's deciduous teeth, and other relics from thirty martyrs.[29]Шаблон:Rp Modern historians have regarded Alberic's account with some skepticism, characterizing it as "fanciful"[37]Шаблон:Rp and "pure invention."[38]Шаблон:Rp In any case, after the battle the crusaders sent the icon to Cîteaux Abbey,[31]Шаблон:Rp[30]Шаблон:Rp but there is no record of whether it reached that destination.[31]Шаблон:Rp

Файл:Le Grande Châsse.png

Following the sack of Constantinople, Robert de Clari described the spoils won by the newly-established Latin Empire, including "the iron of the lance with which Our Lord had His side pierced," in the Church of the Virgin of the Pharos.[30]Шаблон:Rp However by the 1230s, the Latin Empire's financial state had grown desperate.[39]Шаблон:Rp[40]Шаблон:Rp In 1239, Baldwin II arranged to sell Constantinople's Crown of Thorns relic to King Louis IX of France.[39]Шаблон:Rp Over the next several years, Baldwin sold a total of twenty-two relics to Louis.[16]Шаблон:Rp[40] The Holy Lance was included in the final lot, which probably arrived at Paris in 1242.[39]Шаблон:Rp[41]Шаблон:Rp All of these relics were later enshrined in the Sainte Chapelle. During the French Revolution they were removed to the Bibliothèque Nationale, but the lance subsequently disappeared.[5]

Despite the transfer of the Holy Lance to Paris, various travelers continued to report its presence in Constantinople throughout the late Byzantine period.[42]Шаблон:Rp[43]Шаблон:Rp[44]Шаблон:Rp[45]Шаблон:Rp[46]Шаблон:Rp[47]Шаблон:Rp[48]Шаблон:Rp[49]Шаблон:Rp[50]Шаблон:Rp[51]Шаблон:Rp Of particular interest, John Mandeville described the lance relics in both Paris and Constantinople, stating that the latter was much larger than the former.[43]Шаблон:Rp Although the authenticity of Mandeville's travelogue is questionable,[52] the widespread popularity of the work demonstrates that the existence of multiple Holy Lance relics was public knowledge.[53]Шаблон:Rp

Файл:Basilica Sancti Petri 46.jpg
Tomb of Pope Innocent VIII

The relics remaining in Constantinople, including the lance, were presumably seized by Sultan Mehmed II in 1453 when he conquered the city. In 1492, his son Bayezid II sent the lance to Pope Innocent VIII, to encourage the pope to continue to keep his brother and rival Cem prisoner.[54]Шаблон:Rp[5] At this time great doubts as to its authenticity were felt at Rome, as Johann Burchard records,[55] because of the presence of other rival lances in Paris, Nuremberg (see Holy Lance in Vienna below), and Armenia (see Holy Lance in Echmiadzin below).[5] This relic has never since left Rome, and its resting place is at Saint Peter's.[5] Innocent's tomb, created by Antonio del Pollaiuolo, features a bronze effigy of the pope holding the spear blade he received from Bayezid.[54]Шаблон:Rp

In the mid-18th century Pope Benedict XIV states that he obtained an exact drawing of the Saint Chapelle lance, to compare it with the spearhead in St. Peter's. He concluded that former relic was the broken point missing from the latter, and that the two fragments had originally formed one blade.[56]Шаблон:Rp

Vienna

Файл:I09 524 Reichskreuz und Heilige Lanze.jpg
The Holy Lance (left) on display with other items from the Imperial Regalia in Vienna

The Holy Lance in Vienna is displayed in the Imperial Treasury or Weltliche Schatzkammer (lit. Worldly Treasure Room) at the Hofburg Palace in Vienna, Austria.[57] It is the head a typical winged lance of the Carolingian dynasty.[57] The shaft was presumably lost or destroyed by the reign of Conrad II (1024-1039), who commissioned the Reichskreuz ("Imperial Cross") to serve as a reliquary for the spearhead.[58]Шаблон:Rp

The spearhead is wrapped in a distinctive gold cuff, added by Charles IV around 1354. The cuff is inscribed with the Latin text "✝ LANCEA ET CLAVVS DOMINI" ("The lance and nail of the Lord"), affirming that the lance was once used by Longinus and that one of the Holy Nails has been incorporated into the spearhead.[53]Шаблон:Rp[59]Шаблон:Rp The gold cuff covers an older, silver cuff produced for Henry IV between 1084 and 1105, which also refers to the Holy Nail but identifies the spearhead as the lance of Saint Maurice. Gilded stripes on the both sides of the silver cuff bear another Latin inscription: "CLAVVS DOMINICVS ✝ HEINRICVS D[EI] GR[ATI]A TERCIVS / ROMANO[RVM] IMPERATOR AVG[VSTVS] HOC ARGEN / TVM IVSSIT / FABRICARl AD CONFIRMATIONE[M] / CLAVI D[OMI]NI ET LANCEE SANCTI MAVRI / CII // SANCTVS MAVRICIVS" ("Nail of the Lord ✝ Henry by the Grace of God the Third, Emperor of the Romans and Augustus, ordered this silver piece to be made to reinforce the Nail of the Lord and the Lance of St. Maurice / Saint Maurice").[58]Шаблон:Rp[59]Шаблон:Rp The inscription refers to Henry IV, the fourth of his name to reign as King of Germany, as "the third" because he was the third of his name crowned Holy Roman Emperor.[58]Шаблон:Rp

According to Liutprand of Cremona, the first German monarch to obtain the lance was King Henry the Fowler who purchased it in 926,[58]Шаблон:Rp from King Rudolf II of Burgundy.[60]Шаблон:Rp[59]Шаблон:Rp Rudolf is supposed to have received the lance as a gift from a "Count Samson,"[60]Шаблон:Rp, about whom nothing else is known.[58]Шаблон:Rp Liutprand associated the lance not with Longinus, but with Constantine the Great, citing a claim that the Roman emperor used the Holy Nails, discovered by his mother Helena, to make crosses in the middle of the spearhead.[60]Шаблон:Rp[59]Шаблон:Rp The description given by Liutprand closely corresponds to the relic kept in Vienna today.[58]Шаблон:Rp

An alternative account of how Henry received the lance is offered by Widukind of Corvey. According to Widukind, King Conrad I of Germany made arrangements on his deathbed in 918 to send his royal insignia, including the Holy Lance, to Henry, who would succeed him as king of East Francia.[61] This version of events has been rejected by historians.[59]Шаблон:Rp

On 15 March 933, Henry carried his lance as he led his forces against the Magyars in the Battle of Riade. From that point forward, the Ottonian dynasty regarded the lance as a talisman guaranteeing victory.[58]Шаблон:Rp The timing of the battle--on the feast day of Longinus--indicates that by this time Henry associated the relic with the lance used in the crucifixion.[58]Шаблон:Rp Along the same lines, it may be telling that Henry's son Otto the Great fought the Battle of Birten in the first half of March 939.[58]Шаблон:Rp However, in 955 Otto sought support from Saint Lawrence to secure victory in the Battle of Lechfeld, which was planned to occur on Lawrence's feast day.[58]Шаблон:Rp This shift may have resulted from the increased diplomatic ties between Germany and the Byzantine Empire circa 949/950. As the Germans became aware of the Byzantine version of the Holy Lance, it became politically inconvenient to associate the Ottonian lance with Longinus.[58]Шаблон:Rp By 1008 the lance was identified with that of Saint Maurice,[58]Шаблон:Rp who had been venerated by Otto the Great.[58]Шаблон:Rp

Otto III commissioned two replicas of the lance. One of these was given to Prince Vajk of Hungary in 996, who was later crowned King Stephen I.[58]Шаблон:Rp The other was presented to Duke of Poland, Bolesław I, at the Congress of Gniezno in 1000.[62]Шаблон:Rp[63] The Polish lance is currently displayed in the John Paul II Cathedral Museum in Kraków.[64] The fate of the Hungarian lance is less clear. When Stephen's successor, Peter Orseolo was deposed in 1041, he sought the aid of German king Henry III, who captured the lance in the Battle of Ménfő. Whether Henry returned the lance to Peter upon his restoration is uncertain.[58]Шаблон:Rp Shortly before World War I, a gold-inlaid spearhead, identified as a Germanic work from around the year 1000, was dredged from the Danube River near Budapest.[65]Шаблон:Rp[66]Шаблон:Rp The gold inlay suggests that this artifact could be Stephen's lance replica, but this has not been confirmed.[58]Шаблон:Rp

In 1424, Sigismund had a collection of relics, including the lance, moved from his capital in Prague to his birthplace, Nuremberg, and decreed them to be kept there forever.[67]Шаблон:Rp This collection was called the Imperial Regalia (Шаблон:Lang).[67]

When the French Revolutionary army approached Nuremberg in the spring of 1796, the local authorities turned over the Imperial Regalia to Johann Alois von Hügel, Chief Commissary of the Imperial Diet.[68]Шаблон:Rp[69]Шаблон:Rp Baron von Hügel took the regalia to Ratisbon for safekeeping, but by 1800 that city was also under threat of invasion, so he relocated them again to Passau, Linz, and Vienna.[68] When the French entered Vienna in 1805, the collection was moved again to Hungary, before ultimately returning to Vienna.[69]Шаблон:Rp[68]Шаблон:Rp These movements were conducted in secret, as the status of the regalia had not been resolved amid plans for the dissolution of the Holy Roman Empire. When Nuremberg later appealed for the return of the regalia, the city's requests were easily dismissed by the Austrian Empire.[69]Шаблон:Rp

The Kunsthistorisches Museum has dated the lance to the 8th century.[57] Robert Feather, an English metallurgist and technical engineering writer, tested it for a documentary in January 2003.[70][71] Based on X-ray diffraction, fluorescence tests, and other noninvasive procedures, he dated the main body of the spear to the 7th century at the earliest.[71] Feather stated in the same documentary that an iron pin – long claimed to be a nail from the crucifixion, hammered into the blade and set off by tiny brass crosses – was "consistent" in length and shape with a 1st-century AD Roman nail.[71]

Not long afterward, researchers at the Interdisciplinary Research Institute for Archeology in Vienna used X-ray and other technology to examine a range of lances, and determined that the Vienna lance dates from around the 8th to the beginning of the 9th century, with the nail apparently being of the same metal, and ruled out the possibility of it dating back to the 1st century AD.[72]

A 1960 newspaper article, entitled "The Spear of Destiny," claimed that Nazi Germany seized the Imperial Regalia in 1938 so that Adolf Hitler could use the Holy Lance in occult rituals.[73] Since then the Hofburg spear has been re-imagined in popular culture as a magical talisman whose powers may be used for good or evil.[74]

Vagharshapat

Файл:Holy-lance-Echmiadzin.jpg
The Holy Lance in Vagharshapat

A Holy Lance is conserved in Vagharshapat (previously known as Echmiadzin), the religious capital of Armenia. It was previously held in the monastery of Geghard.The first source that mentions it is a text Holy Relics of Our Lord Jesus Christ, in a thirteenth-century Armenian manuscript. According to this text, the spear which pierced Jesus was to have been brought to Armenia by the Apostle Thaddeus. The manuscript does not specify precisely where it was kept, but the Holy Relics gives a description that exactly matches the lance, the monastery gate (since the thirteenth century precisely), and the name of Geghardavank (Monastery of the Holy Lance).[75]Шаблон:Rp

In 1655, the French traveler Jean-Baptiste Tavernier was the first Westerner to see this relic in Armenia. In 1805, the Russians captured the monastery and the relic was moved to Tchitchanov Geghard, Tbilisi, Georgia.[76]

It was later returned to Armenia, and is still on display at the Manoogian museum in Vagharshapat, enshrined in a 17th-century reliquary. Every year during the commemoration of the apostles St. Thaddeus and St. Bartholomew the relic is brought out for worship.[77]

Antioch

The Discovery of the Holy Lance in Antioch

During the June 1098 Siege of Antioch, a monk named Peter Bartholomew reported that he had a vision in which St. Andrew told him that the Holy Lance was buried in the Church of St. Peter in Antioch.[78]Шаблон:Rp After much digging in the cathedral, Bartholomew allegedly discovered a lance.[78]Шаблон:Rp Despite the doubts of many, including the papal legate Adhemar of Le Puy, many of the crusaders credited the discovery of the lance for their subsequent victory in the Battle of Antioch, which broke the siege and secured the city.[78]Шаблон:Rp[20]Шаблон:Rp

Greek Orthodox sources such as the biography of patriarch Christopher indicate that a relic thought to be the Holy Lance was among the treasures of the church of St. Peter as early as the 10th century.[79] Historian Klaus-Peter Todt has suggested this relic could have been buried to hide it from Seljuk forces in 1084, allowing the crusaders to find it in 1098.[80]Шаблон:Rp

Файл:Richard Wagner, Parsifal, Nur eine Waffe taugt (Arnaldo Dell'Ira 1903-1943).jpg
The Holy Lance in Parsifal, Act 3 (by Arnaldo dell'Ira, Шаблон:Circa)

The Holy Lance has been conflated with the bleeding lance depicted in the unfinished 12th century romance Perceval, the Story of the Grail by Chrétien de Troyes.[81]Шаблон:Rp The story also refers to a javelot that has wounded the Fisher King, which may or may not be intended to be one and the same with the bleeding lance.[81]Шаблон:Rp[82] Chrétien ascribes supernaturally destructive powers to the bleeding spear, which are inconsistent with any Christian tradition.[81]Шаблон:Rp Nevertheless, the continuations of Chrétien's poem attempted to explain the mysteries of the bleeding spear by identifying it with the lance from John 19:34.[81]Шаблон:Rp[3]Шаблон:Rp[83]Шаблон:Rp

Chrétien's Perceval was adapted by Wolfram von Eschenbach into the German epic Parzival.[84][85] Like Chrétien, Wolfram depicts the bleeding lance in a manner that cannot easily be reconciled with the spear of Longinus.[81]Шаблон:Rp Parzival became the primary source for Richard Wagner's 1882 opera Parsifal, in which the Fisher King is wounded by the spear that pierced Jesus's side.[86]Шаблон:Rp
