TURKISH NO MORE
Whole World Rejoices That “the
Infidel” Has Been Driven
From Holy City.
EASTER will be celebrated in
Palestine as never before this
many centuries, and all the
Christian world will celebrate
with greater fervor and deeper rever
ence now that the hand of the “Infidel
Turk” is removed.
It Is exactly 674 years since the
Turk drove out the Christians and took
possession of Jerusalem, after It had
been taken by Frederick II, March 17,
1229, who crowned himself king of the
Latin kingdom, In imitation of that
earlier king of Jerusalem, Godfrey of
Bouillon (1099).
Land of Pilgrimage.
Palestine had been assigned to the
Emperor of .the East In 305 A. D., afcd
was nominally Christian at that time,
when pilgrimage to the Holy Land be
came almost a cult and the finding of
relics becume a regular pursuit In all
the places identified with the life of
Jesus.
This was the. period that might al
most be termed the Christianizing of
Palestine, for Christianity had devel
oped far more vigorously at Rome and
In other parts of the Roman empire
than In the Holy Land Itself, up to this
time. Constantine had made It the
state religion and Helena had found
the “True Cross,” so that there was a
great' stirring of interest throughout
the land. Many fine churches were
built, and Justinian erected the Golden
Gate and pnrt of a great church, now
the El Aksa mosque (527-565).
Christians Persecuted.
It was in 614 that Chosroes n, king
ot Persia, made his great inroad, per
secuting the Christians wherever he
found them, especially in what is now
Armenia, and capturing Jerusalem.
The Emperor Heraclius managed to
regain control (629), but he had to
yield before the might of the Caliph
Omar (637), who erected many great
structures, especially the mosque
called after him, upon the great rock
which had been the site of the temple
of Solomon.
r or more than 400 years the Mo
hammedans held sway, until as a re
sult of the Crusades Godfrey of Bou
illon took possession in 1099. The
Christian powers could not, however,
hold possession, for they were always
fighting among themselves, and so
Saladin, the mighty leader of the Mos
lems, gained a permanent hold over
the land of Palestine and Jerusalem
in 1187.
5 It was during the next century that
the Christians under the leadership of
Frederick II gained possession of Pal
estine for the last time, until our own ,
day. But with dissension among the
Christians of that time it was not dif
ficult for the Turks to regain control
In 1244 and retain It ever since, in one
form or another.
Surrender of Jerusalem.
The surrender of Jerusalem to the
British forces last December, and the
subsequent conquest of much of the
rest of tile land now establishes Chris
tian control, at least for the present,
and the doubt has been raised whether
any Christian power, even Germany,
will dare to suggest that, the holy
places again be turned over to the
power of the Moslem, no matter what
the terms of ponce may be.
Precisely what local changes in priv
ileges of worship will come out of the
change may not be foretold. For a
long time a strange situation has pre
vailed In Jerusalem. The holy sepul
cher, for example, with Its relics of
Christian treasure, has been used by
Greeks, Armenians and Western Chris
tians in alternation, the control re
maining with the Turkish authorities.
Naturally many disputes have arisen
out o£ so strange u situation.
This Easter Significant.
When the city was captured by the
British there was great local anxiety
as to what nrtght result. With the en
Ieneral Allenby, with his staff
tin French und Italian officers,
ixieties were quickly set at
he Jewish population soon
that all was to be well with j
d other sects represented In
enslilp of the historic place ,
tally reassured. A sense of '
jerty and security had Its int
ellect and influenced pro- ■
the preparations for the new,
led Easter as well as for fu- 1
ship of every sort In the Iron
ly Land, In Jerusalem as ]
■Isewhere began to appear a conviction
that, no matter how long world peace
night be delayed, a new spirit was
ibroad throughout the earth.
This Easter, then, has a special sig
nificance, In view of all the centuries
if struggle for holding the places con
lecrated to Christianity by the activity t
if Its Savior. |
