TS1239.01.02.a - 2 January, 1239, Lateran. - Gregory IX to the Brethren of the Templars in Spain: praises their efforts for the support of the Holy Land - the dangerous situation of which is daily in his mind -, in which they spare neither men nor materials. Therefore he indulges that if the archbishops, bishops, and prelates - who have their traditional rights in the churches which belong to the Order - demand more, this should be rejected. (Reg.Vat. 19, 71r / Gregoire IX, Régistres, 2, 4722)
