The Jerusalem cross (also known as "five-fold Cross", or "cross-and-crosslets") is a heraldic cross and Christian cross variant consisting of a large cross potent surrounded by four smaller Greek crosses, one in each quadrant. It was used as the emblem and coat of arms of the Kingdom of Jerusalem from the 1280s.

A timeless symbol cherished for centuries the Jerusalem Cross has several interpretations:


1  The large cross represents Christ, while the four smaller crosses represent Matthew,   Mark,   Luke and John  (the four evangelists). The authors of the Gospels (evangelists) - "people who proclaim good news," because their books helped spread the word of Jesus.
The Four Evangelists


2  The large cross represents Christ, while the four smaller crosses represent the four quarters of the world.  These four crosses are viewed as a symbol of Christ’s command to spread the Gospel around the world – a mission that was started in Jerusalem.


3  The five crosses are indicative of the five wounds of Christ 
from His crucifixion. The four smaller crosses represent the four wounds of His hands and feet, and the large cross signifying His pierced heart.
