4.John 19:34
The phenomenon of blood and water was considered a miracle by Origen (although the water may be explained biologically by the piercing of the pericardial sinus secondary to cardiac tamponade.Various relics claimed to be the Holy Lance
There have been many relics that are claimed to be the Holy Lance, or parts of it.No actual lance is known until the pilgrim St.Breviarius at the church of the Holy Sepulchre.In 615 Jerusalem and its relics were captured by the Persian forces of King Khosrau II (Chosroes II).According to the Chronicon Paschale, the point of the lance, which had been broken off, was given in the same year to Nicetas, who took it to Constantinople and deposited it in the church of Hagia Sophia.The present "Crown of Thorns" is a wreath of rushes.As for the larger portion of the lance, Arculpus claimed he saw it at the Church of the Holy Sepulchre around 670 in Jerusalem, but there is otherwise no mention of it after the sack in 615.Some claim that the larger relic had been conveyed to Constantinople sometime during the 8th century, possibly at the same time as the Crown of Thorns.At any rate, its presence at Constantinople seems to be clearly attested by various pilgrims, particularly Russians, and, though it was deposited in various churches in succession, it seems possible to trace it and distinguish it from the relic of the point.Sir John Mandeville declared in 1357 that he had seen the blade of the Holy Lance both at Paris and at Constantinople, and that the latter was a much larger relic than the former.Paris (the point that had been separated from the lance), Nuremberg (see "Vienna lance" below), and Armenia (see "Etschmiadzin lance" below).In the mid 1700s Benedict XIV states that he obtained from Paris an exact drawing of the point of the lance, and that in comparing it with the larger relic in St.Peter's he was satisfied that the two had originally formed one blade.This relic has never since left Rome, where it is preserved under the dome of Saint Peter's Basilica, although the Roman Catholic Church makes no claim as to its authenticity.Echmiadzin lance
The lance currently in Echmiadzin, Armenia, was discovered during the First Crusade.In 1098 the crusader Peter Bartholomew reported that he had a vision in which St.Andrew told him that the Holy Lance was buried in St.Raynaldi and the Bollandists) believed that this lance afterwards fell into the hands of the Turks and was in fact the lance that Bajazet sent to Pope Innocent and is now in the Vatican.This collection was called the Reichskleinodien or Imperial Regalia.When the French Revolutionary army approached Nuremberg in the spring of 1796 the city councilors decided to remove the Reichskleinodien to Vienna, Austria, for safe keeping.As part of the imperial regalia it was kept in the Schatzkammer (Imperial treasury) in Vienna and was known as the lance of Saint Maurice.It was returned to Austria by American General George S.Currently the Spear is held in the Schatzkammer (Imperial treasury).Emperor Henry II had it made with a small sliver of the original lance.Another copy was given to the Hungarian king at the same time.Many of these have originated in recent times and several popular new age and conspiracy theory books have popularized the legend of the spear.Hitler started World War II in order to capture the spear, with which he was obsessed.He never actually referred to the spear as spiritually controlled, but rather as intertwined with all of mankind's ambitions.Army who served in World War II, and had written a book about the Dachau massacre, which he had witnessed.However it was recovered in 1979 by Hartmann.After contacting most of the members of the alleged expedition and others involved, including senior Nazi officials and close associates of Adolf Hitler, like Hitler Youth Leader Artur Axmann, Buechner became convinced the claims were true.Fictional uses of the lance
In the opera Parsifal by Wagner the Lance of Longinus (or Holy Spear) makes an appearance.In the late 1970s, writer Steve Englehart introduced the concept of the Spear of Destiny to the pages of DC Comics, and it has been used as a plot device by several other writers since.It has appeared many times since then, infecting superheroes with the mental mindset of Hitler himself.Serial killer Buffalo Bill has a tattoo on his side that resembles the wound left in the side of Christ in the popular suspense film Silence Of The Lambs
