1667 Saint Bernard of Clairvaux Bible
Sermons Crusades Knights Templar RARE 3v
“The
road to hell is paved with good intentions.”
― Bernard of Clairvaux
Bernard of Clairvaux was an 11th-century
Cistercian monk who helped shape the Rule of the Knights Templar. His sermons
were numerous and hundreds of them survived in written form. Amongst his other
known writings are letters, apologies, dogmas, defenses of the Catholic Church,
and treatises designed for teaching young believers. His work “Book of Considerations” was written as
an apology to Pope Eugene III for the failure of the Second Crusade, of which
he felt responsible. In it, he explains how the sins of the crusaders were the
cause of the failure of the crusade.
This 1667 printing of the works of Saint
Bernard was published in Paris, printed in three large tomes.
