The primary source In Praise of the New Knighthood, written by St. Bernard of Clairvaux, praises the Templars, a military order who were endorsed by the church. The letter was written with intent supporting the purpose of the Templars as well as encoring further work from the Templars, (Prol.). The letter was written to the master of the Templars, Hugh, (Prol.), to pass along the churches appreciation of the work the Temple was doing by fighting for Christ.
