basis211Frederick Barbarossa, together with his forces, was the first to leave his
German homeland. En route, he had to break the resistance of the distrustful Greek emperor Issac Angelos. Only the occupation of Adrianopolis allowed him to
continue his march and sail to Asia Minor. One year later, King Philip of France
embarked from Marseille, and Richard the Lionheart from Genoa. They had
agreed that their fleets would gather in Messina, where they would wait until the
spring.
At the time, a famous hermit named Joachim of Flora, who possessed the gift
of prophecy, lived in Sicily. Following the model of the monasteries of Mount
Athos, Lebanon, and the Sinai, he established convents in the mountains of
Calabria, along the straits of Messina, and on the Lipari Islands off Sicily. Among
his contemporaries, he was known as the best author of commentary on the
Apocalypse of Saint John. Richard the Lionheart went to visit the illustrious monk
and beseeched him to explain chapter twelve of the Apocalypse to him.
"The woman dressed as the sun, with a moon under her feet, and a crown of
twelve stars on her head is the church," said the hermit. "The large red snake with
seven heads and seven diadems is the devil. The seven heads are the seven great
persecutors of the Gospel: Herod, Nero, Constantine (who emptied the treasury of
the Church of Rome) Mohammed, Melsemut, Saladin, and the Antichrist. The first
five are dead. Saladin lives, and uses his power. The Antichrist will come soon.
Saladin still triumphs, but he will lose Jerusalem and the Holy Land.
"When will it happen?" asked Richard the Lionheart.
"Seven years after taking Jerusalem."
"So, have we come too early?"
"Your coming was necessary, King Richard. God will give you victory
over your enemies, and will make your name glorious. Regarding the
Antichrist, he is among us, and soon he will sit on the throne of Peter."
Richard the Lionheart never liberated Jerusalem. Saladin triumphed for
a long period. And as for the Antichrist: Who can say that Joachim's
Antichrist was not Innocent III?
Otto Rhan. Crusade against the Grail
(примечание: в конце намек, то есть просто обвинение папы Иннокентия 3 за жестокое преследование и разгром катаров, понятно. Доставляет также упоминание императора Константина в одном списке с этими Неронами, Мемелютами и Мессершмитами /шутка.).
