Early in the fourth century St. Helena, mother of the Roman Emperor
Constantine, went to Jerusalem in search of the holy places of Christ’s life. She
razed the second-century Temple of Aphrodite, which tradition held was built over the
Savior’s tomb, and her son built the Basilica of the Holy Sepulcher over the tomb.
During the excavation, workers found three crosses. Legend has it that the one on
which Jesus died was identified when its touch healed a dying woman.
The cross immediately became an object of veneration. At a Good Friday
celebration in Jerusalem toward the end of the fourth century, according to an
eyewitness, the wood was taken out of its silver container and placed on a table
together with the inscription Pilate ordered placed above Jesus’ head: Then “all the
people pass through one by one; all of them bow down, touching the cross and the
inscription, first with their foreheads, then with their eyes; and, after kissing the cross,
they move on.”
To this day the Eastern Churches, Catholic and Orthodox alike, celebrate the
Exaltation of the Holy Cross on the September anniversary of the basilica’s dedication.
The feast entered the Western calendar in the seventh century after Emperor Heraclius
recovered the cross from the Persians, who had carried it off in 614, 15 years earlier.
According to the story, the emperor intended to carry the cross back into Jerusalem
himself, but was unable to move forward until he took off his imperial garb and became
a barefoot pilgrim.
The cross is today the universal image of Christian belief. Countless generations
of artists have turned it into a thing of beauty to be carried in procession or worn as
jewelry. To the eyes of the first Christians, it had no beauty. It stood outside too many
city walls, decorated only with decaying corpses, as a threat to anyone who defied
Rome’s authority—including Christians who refused sacrifice to Roman gods. Although
believers spoke of the cross as the instrument of salvation, it seldom appeared in
Christian art unless disguised as an anchor or the Chi-Rho until after Constantine’s
edict of toleration.
