Living Heritage of the Knights Templar Restored: A Topical Encyclopedia 6th Edition, Geneva (2020) Prince Judge Matthew of Thebes (Editor) J.D., Ph.D., D.Sc., J.S.D., J.C.D. King’s Counsel (K.C.), Privy Councillor (P.C.) This Official Site of the restored Templar Order is not simply a “website”. This is a complete online university level textbook, as a “Topical Encyclopedia”, organized by larger topics for deeper understanding. This book is over 620 pages (if printed), including over 1,540 numbered source references. As the astronomer Carl Sagan said ca. 1980, paraphrasing from the physicist Pierre LaPlace in 1812 AD, from the philosopher David Hume in 1748 AD: “Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence” In that scholarly spirit of Factual Truth, this Official Site was developed to entirely skip the modern practice of making “claims”, and directly proceed to deliver volumes of evidence. The required “extraordinary evidence” is provided as verifiable academic source references, directly from primary sources of the historical record and authoritative scholarship, in hundreds of numbered footnotes, consisting of conclusive evidence, such that all facts in these materials are proven publicly. These materials feature extensive quotes, directly from historical documents, allowing the founding ancestors of the original Templar Order to tell us the Truth, as they lived it, in their own words, as written by their own hand. Featured Topic Reports Templar Spirituality Skills Training Government Modern Missions Legal Succession Survival Lineage Foundations Introduction The restored Templar Order does not present merely some “version” of history, does not rely on any “secrets” of some “oral tradition” of history, and does not ask people to “believe” in its statements by its own authority. All facts which could be questioned as “unknown” or “controversial”, are solidly backed by evidence and quotes from primary sources, with source references. Therefore, here all “lost history” is restored and provided as “found”, all “unsolved mysteries” are fully revealed as “solved”, and all “secrets” are made public as the collective heritage of humanity, all for the original Templar mission of promoting Chivalry for upholding the pillars of civilization. Color Coded Quotes Indicating Sources Quotes are color coded for convenience of visual reference, to indicate the types of primary sources, as follows: Brown Quotes indicate Historical sources; Blue Quotes indicate Modern academic sources; Purple Quotes indicate Canon law sources; Red Quotes indicate Royal or Nobility sources; Green Quotes are Popular or Restored sayings. Bible Quotes from King James Version All Bible verses throughout these materials are quoted from the Authorized King James Version (AKJV) Cambridge University Press (1990) From Original Languages – For the Christian Bible, the New Testament was originally written in Greek (ca. 70-115 AD), based upon the Old Testament from the Greek Septuagint (260-132 BC), which was translated from the original Aramaic scriptures. The King James Bible was translated from these works in Greek and Aramaic in 1611 AD, further verified and refined by Oxford and Cambridge Universities by 1769 AD. The resulting Authorized King James Version (AKJV) has since been considered the most accurate Bible for authoritative academic scholarship. Ancient Dating by Conventional Timeline Compatible with Young Earth – The encyclopedic writings of the Templar Order include various topics of ancient Templar heritage, citing some dates as early as ca. 10,000 BC. This is not any rejection of Creationist “Young Earth” beliefs, based on calculations from literal interpretations of the Biblical Book of Genesis, some dating the beginning of humanity to ca. 4,000 BC, and others to ca. 11,000 BC (based on...
