The Pope expressed that they are all God-fearing people and that they are among the chosen ones. He basically told them that the land that is being invaded was for them. He also expressed to them that Jerusalem was being over ran by people that did not believe. He painted a picture so vividly that the people felt compelled to run to their aid. He also used their ancestors as leverage by telling them to do the deeds of their ancestors and reclaim what was theirs and stated that it was the will of God. The Pope’s Urban’s speech at Clermont was spoken to let the people know what was happening in Jerusalem and to make them feel that they were obligated to God to go and save the Holy Land from all nonbelievers.
