the pope was disappointed that many eastern bishops okay-ed the marriage for the clergy during the vote. He refused to sign the letter that issues the permission for priests and other clergy members to marry. The commander of the city in which the pope was residing in had asked the people of that city to revolt against the pope. The people however, disliked the city leader, and instead revolted against him and captured him, rather than the pope. In this instance, the pope asked the people to "let him go", and so they did. This signified that the power of the pope was officially above the political leaders of the city.

Why were clergy in the crusades?

According to my book, they wanted to win the holy land from the infidels. The infidels disturbed the Christians due to their Non-Christian religion. They also wanted to reunite the Western and Eastern Christians' under Pope Urban II's control. Pope Urban II was the leader of the clergy from the fact that he was the pope. The pope is higher than all levels. The order is pope to cardinals to archbishops to bishop to monks to priest the to nuns. There was also an advantage to reuniting the Western and Eastern Christians. The advantage was having the Byzantines as their ally. The Byzantines were a strong empire. So surely, the Byzantines helped in the war. It did not only add more people but it also added more power. I hope I helped!
