Lance of Longinus -- The Spear of Destiny
Publisher Description
Beginning in the Middle Ages, the 'Lance of Longinus' -- along with other artifacts of the Crucifixion of Christ -- became the subject of legend, usually noted as a receptacle of mystical power. This 'Spear of Destiny' is so revered for its power in a battle that it remained a sought after weapon by emperors, kings, and generals up until modern times. There are several spears that claim to be the true 'Holy Lance'. They are: (1) the Antiochian Lance; (2) the Armenian Lance; (3) the Vatican Lance; (4) the Polish Lance; and (5) the Vienna Lance. This book digs into the stories behind each of the five spears in order to uncover the true 'Holy Lance'.
