ABOUT The cross of nails symbolizes the crucifixion of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Let the cross of nails forever be a reminder of the great love that Jesus has for us and the suffering that he endured for our salvation. Around the world: The Cross of Nails is a symbol of hope and friendship in the aftermath of conflict. A "Coventry Cross of Nails" (in German, Nagelkreuz von Coventry) is a Christian cross made from iron nails, employed as a symbol of peace and reconciliation. The original version was made from three large medieval nails salvaged from the Coventry Cathedral after the building was severely damaged by German bombs on 14 November 1940, during the Second World War. In the following decades, several hundred crosses have been given as gifts to various organisations, including churches, prisons and schools. The form of the cross echoes the crucifixion of Christ, and the nails with which Christ was affixed to the cross according to some accounts. In Coventry Coventry Cathedral was severely damaged during the Coventry Blitz, and its roof was destroyed on 14 November 1940. The idea for the cross came from Rev Arthur Philip Wales, who was then rector of St Mark's church in Coventry, which was also damaged in the bombing, and later rector at St Michael's church in Warmington, Warwickshire. He found several large hand-forged medieval carpenters nails as he walked through the ruins of the cathedral on the morning after the bombing. He used some wire to bind together three nails into the shape of a Latin cross, with one nail vertical and two head-to-tail as a cross-piece, and presented them to the Bishop of Coventry, Mervyn Haigh. The Cathedral's Provost Richard Howard had the words "Father Forgive" carved into the wall behind the altar of the ruined building, and two charred beams fallen together into the shape of a cross were erected among the rubble. The original charred cross is now displayed in the new cathedral, constructed after the war adjacent to the ruins of the medieval cathedral, with a replica placed in the standing ruins of the old cathedral. The original cross of nails is also retained by the new cathedral. It made a progress around the churches of the diocese in Lent 1962, returning to the new cathedral on the eve of its consecration on 25 May 1962, and is now often displayed at the High Altar, with the nails now welded into place. Elsewhere In September 1947, Richard Howard visited Kiel and presented a cross made from medieval nails found in the ruins of Coventry Cathedral to the church of St Nikolai; in return, Howard was presented with a stone from the ruins of the German church. Over subsequent years, hundreds of nail crosses have been given to various organisations, originally using medieval nails from the old cathedral but more recently using modern replicas. In many places the Coventry Cross of Nails is mounted on a wall, or displayed on an altar. The recipients of nail crosses from Coventry were brought together in 1974 to form an ecumenical "Community of the Cross of Nails", developed by Bill Williams, Provost at Coventry Cathedral from 1958 to 1981. The network of over 200 organisations in 45 countries shares a commitment to peace, justice and reconciliation. It includes dozens of churches in Germany, including the Dresden Frauenkirche, and Kaiser Wilhelm Memorial Church and Chapel of Reconciliation (Kapelle der Versöhnung) in Berlin, and in other cities in the UK and elsewhere. At many, the Coventry Litany of Reconciliation is recited each Friday; the short prayer was written by Canon Joseph Poole in 1958. A Coventry Cross of Nails was on board the Type 42 destroyer HMS Coventry (D118) during the Falklands War, sunk with the ship and later salvaged by Royal Navy divers. It was returned to Coventry Cathedral, kept by the next HMS Coventry, a Type 22 frigate, from 1988 until she was decommissioned in 2002, and later presented to the Type 45 destroyer HMS Diamond (D34), which is affiliated to Coventry. Holy Nail Relics that are claimed to be the Holy Nails with which Jesus was crucified are objects of veneration among some Christians, particularly Roman Catholics and the Eastern Orthodox. In Christian symbolism and art they figure among the Arma Christi or Instruments of the Passion, the objects associated with the Passion of Jesus. Like the other Instruments, the Holy Nails have become an object of veneration among many Christians and have been pictured in paintings. It is not clear whether Christ was crucified with three or with four nails, and the question has been long debated.[1] The belief that three nails were used is called Triclavianism. The bridle and helmet of Constantine Sozomen and Theodoret reported that when Helena, the mother of Constantine the Great, discovered the True Cross in Jerusalem in the fourth century AD, the Holy Nails were recovered too. Helena left all but a few fragments of the cross in the Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem, but returned with the nails to Constantinople. The fifth-century Church historian of Constantinople, Socrates of Constantinople, wrote in his Ecclesiastical History, which was finished shortly after 439,[2] that after Constantine was proclaimed Caesar and then Emperor, he ordered that all honor be paid to his mother Helena, to make up for the neglect paid her by her former husband, Constantius Chlorus. After her conversion to Christianity, Constantine sent her on a quest to find the cross and nails used to crucify Jesus. A Jew called Judas (in later retellings further called Judas Cyriacus) led her to the place they were buried. Several miracles were claimed to prove the authenticity of these items, and Helena returned with a piece of the cross and the nails. Socrates wrote that one nail was used to make a bridle and one was used to make the Helmet of Constantine. Two relics exist that have the form of a bridle and are claimed to be the bridle of Constantine: one in the apse of the Cathedral of Milan, and the other in the cathedral treasury of Carpentras Cathedral. The Iron Crown of Lombardy has been said to contain one of the nails, however scientific analysis has shown that the crown contains no iron.[3] The band that was supposed to have been formed from a nail is actually 99% silver. Nails venerated as those of Christ's crucifixion: In the Basilica of Santa Croce in Gerusalemme in Rome. In the Holy Lance of the German imperial regalia in the Hofburg Palace in Vienna. In the Iron Crown of Lombardy in the Cathedral of Monza. In the treasury of Trier Cathedral. In Bamberg Cathedral. In the form of a bridle, in the apse of the Cathedral of Milan (see Rito della Nivola) In the form of a bridle, in the cathedral treasury of Carpentras. In the monastery of San Nicolò l'Arena in Catania In the cathedral of Colle di Val d'Elsa, near Siena In Gematria Next, we will study the measurement lines, noticing that they form a cross. As we are told, Jesus was crucified by his hands and feet with three nails: two were put through his hands and one through his legs. In Hebrew, the letter waw is ‘nail’. Waw has a numerical value of 6. So, with these numerical values, there were three nails (6 + 6 + 6 = 18) that pierced the body of Christ. Jesus died, but only for a moment, as the Bible teaches us. We already know that the Hebrew word Chai is a word for ‘Living’ and Chai has numerical value of 18, just like the three nails. Therefore in the language of symbolism, the three nails (666) are actually the Breath of Life for Jesus. From the Bible we know only that two hands were nailed to cross, but there is no certain mention of the legs. Jesus was dead for three days (or 24 x 3 = 72 hours) and then resurrected. Here, the number 72 refers to the symbol ‘face of God’. For this magnificent symbolic account to become clear as water, the number 666 (the number of the beast) deserves our full attention – the Bible says: it is the number of a man. (Revelation 13:18) When Jesus died on the cross, the roman solder stroke his spear through Jesus’ side. Also the symbolic words of this sentence refer to the number 666. The first word, ‘roman’, is in Greek ‘lateinos’ and has a numerical value of 666. The word ‘roman’ is in Hebrew and also has a numerical value of 666. The second word, ‘side’ is in Greek ‘pleuran’ which again has the numerical value of 666. The word ‘side’ is ‘tsela’ in Hebrew. This must be the reason why so many specialists of Gematria think that the antichrist must be Roman and perhaps even Cesar Nero. The Passion Cross and Nail Cross Also known as the Cross of Suffering, Carpenter's cross, Pointed cross, Aiguisé (Aiguise) cross, Urdée, Urdee or Urdy cross. The Passion Cross has sharpened points at the end of one or more of the cross members. It is also referred to as the Cross of Suffering representing the nails that Christ suffered at his Crucifixion. The French word for 'sharpened' is aiguisé and in heraldry it is called the Cross Aiguisé or Pointed Cross. Another heraldic name is the Cross Urdée (Urde, or Urdy). Urde means a 'sharp projection', like a spearhead. The plural of urde is urdee and this is sometimes used to describe the pointed battlements of a fortress. In addition to heraldry, this cross is used as a typographical mark called the obelisk. The Passion Cross is named from the original meaning and refers to Christ's suffering on the cross – not just the obvious physical pain, nor from the mocking crowd, the humiliating crown of thorns, sign and robe. The real and immeasurable suffering was paying for our sins. The Passion Cross is a smooth design, suitable for heraldry. An alternative name is the Nail Cross (see also Disciple's Cross) which has exactly the same meaning but is visually more representational. (Since Matt. 13:55 and Mark 6:2-3 imply Jesus was a carpenter, the Nail Cross is sometimes referred to as the Carpenter's Cross or Pincers Cross).
