COUNT-OFF & NAME-O-RAMA
CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
The “Nine Worthies” is a set of nine figures who exemplify the ideals of chivalry, and whose lives were thus deemed valuable to study for aspirants to chivalric status (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nine_Worthies). Composed of three sets of three: three pagans, three Jews, and three Christians.
- Pagans
- Hector
- Alexander the Great
- Julius Caesar
- Jews
- Joshua
- David
- Judas Maccabeus
- Christians
- King Arthur
- Charlemagne
- Godfrey of Bouillon
Godfrey of Bouillon – French nobleman who was instrumental in retaking the city of Jerusalem in 1099. He was offered the title of King of Jerusalem. He agreed to rule, but refused the title of king, saying:
Why would I bear the name of a king in a place where my savior was crowned with reproaches?
Why would I take a scepter in my hand where he took a cross upon his shoulders?
Why would I suffer a crown of gold upon my head where he received a crown of thorns?
This is a high standard, to give up everything and work hard, but at the moment when it seems that you are finally ascending, to give up the glory to God. Godfrey wasn’t perfect, but to respond with such virtue in the face of such a test is worth remembering a thousand years later.
