Some ecclesiastical authorities initially criticized the Knights Templar. However, in 1129, the group got support from eminent French abbot Bernard of Clairvaux as well as the official endorsement of the Catholic Church. “In Praise of the New Knighthood,” written by Bernard, extolled the virtues of the Knights Templar and provided support for their expansion.
Pope Innocent II granted the Knights Templar unique privileges in 1139 through a Papal Bull. Among these were the Templars, who were free from taxation, allowed to erect their own cathedrals, and subject to the Pope’s authority alone. #Knights Templar Rings, #Masonic Rings, #Blue Lodge Masonic Ring, #Knights Templar
