Templar \Tem"plar\, n. [OE. templere, F. templier, LL.
   templarius. See {Temple} a church.]
   1. One of a religious and military order first established at
      Jerusalem, in the early part of the 12th century, for the
      protection of pilgrims and of the Holy Sepulcher. These
      Knights Templars, or Knights of the Temple, were so named
      because they occupied an apartment of the palace of
      Bladwin II. in Jerusalem, near the Temple.

   Note: The order was first limited in numbers, and its members
         were bound by vows of chastity and poverty. After the
         conquest of Palestine by the Saracens, the Templars
         spread over Europe, and, by reason of their reputation
         for valor and piety, they were enriched by numerous
         donations of money and lands. The extravagances and
         vices of the later Templars, however, finally led to
         the suppression of the order by the Council of Vienne
         in 1312.

   2. A student of law, so called from having apartments in the
      Temple at London, the original buildings having belonged
      to the Knights Templars. See {Inner Temple}, and {Middle
      Temple}, under {Temple}. [Eng.]

   3. One belonged to a certain order or degree among the
      Freemasons, called Knights Templars. Also, one of an order
      among temperance men, styled Good Templars.

Templar \Tem"plar\, a.
   Of or pertaining to a temple. [R.]

         Solitary, family, and templar devotion.  --Coleridge.
