Wisdom within the chapters of the secret teachings of all ages manly P hall the Hier IC Legend when Solomon the Beloved of God builder of the Everlasting house and Grandmaster of the lodge of Jerusalem ascended the Throne of his father David he consecrated his life to
The erection of a temple to God and a palace for the Kings of Israel David’s faithful friend hyam king of Ty hearing that a son of David sat upon the throne of Israel sent messages of congratulation and offers of assistance to the new ruler in his history of the Jews Josephus
Mentions that copies of the letters passing between the two kings were then to be seen both at Jerusalem and at Ty despite hyrum’s lack of appreciation for the 20 cities of Galilee which Solomon presented to him upon the completion of the temple the two monarchs remained the best of
Friends both were famous for their wit and wisdom and when they exchanged letters each devised puzzling questions to test the mental ingenu it of the other Solomon made an agreement with hyam of Ty promising vast amounts of barley wheat corn wine and oil as wages for the Masons and Carpenters from TY
Who were to assist the Jews in the erection of the temple hyam also supplied Cedars and other fine trees which were made into rafts and floated down the sea to japa whence they were taken Inland by Solomon’s workmen to the temple site because of his great love
For Solomon hyam of Ty sent also the grandmas of The dionysiac Architects kiram abff a Widow’s son who had no equal among the Craftsmen of the earth kierum is described as being a Tyrion by birth but of israelitish descent and a second bezal honored by his King with
The title of Father the freem Mason’s pocket companion published in 1771 describes kierum as the most cunning skillful and curious workmen that ever lived whose abilities were not confined to building alone but extended to all kinds of work whether in gold silver brass or iron whether in linen tapestry or embroidery whether
Considered as an architect statuary sick founder or designer separately or together he equally excelled from his designs and under his Direction all the rich and Splendid Furniture of the temple and its several appendages were begun carried on and finished Solomon appointed him in his absence to fill the chair as Deputy
Grandmaster and in his presence senior Grand Warden master of work and general overseer of all artists as well Those whom David had formerly procured from tire and siden as those hyam should now send modem Masonic writers differ as to to the accuracy of the last sentence although an immense amount of
Labor was involved in its construction Solomon’s Temple in the words of George Oliver was only a small building and very inferior in point of size to some of our churches the number of buildings contiguous to it and the vast Treasure of gold and precious stones used in its construction concentrated a great amount
Of wealth within the temple area in the midst of the temple stood the holy of holies sometimes called the Oracle it was an exact Cube each Dimension being 20 cubits and exemplified the influence of Egyptian symbolism the buildings of the temple group were ornamented with 1,453 Columns of perryan marble magnificently sculptured and
2,96 pilasters decorated with capitals there was a broad porch facing the East and the Sanctum sanctorum was upon the West according to tradition the various buildings and Courtyards could hold in all 300,000 persons both the sanctuary and the holy of holies were entirely lined with solid gold plates encrusted with
Jewels King Solomon began the building of the temple in the fourth year of his Reign on what would be according to Modern calculation the 21st day of April and finished it in the 11th year of his rign on the 23rd day of October the temple was begun in the 480th year after
The children of Israel had passed the Red Sea part of the labor of construction included the building of an artificial foundation on the brow of Mount Mariah the stones for the temple were hoisted from quaries directly beneath Mount Mariah and were Creed before being brought to the surface the brass and golden ornaments
For the temple were cast in molds in the clay ground between sukus and Zera and the wooden parts were all finished before they reached the temple site the building was put together consequently without sound and without instruments all its parts fitting exactly without the hammer of contention the acts of

Structures of Ty and siden could not be compared with the Eternal God’s Temple at Jerusalem there were employed about it no less than 3,600 princes or Master Masons to conduct the work according to Solomon’s directions with 80,000 hewers of stone in the mountain or fellow crafts men and 70,000 laborers in all
153,00 besides the levy under adinam to work in the mountains of Lebanon by turns with the sidonians videlicet 30,000 being in all 183,000 Daniel sickles gives 3,300 overseers instead of 3,600 and lists the three grand Masters separately the same author estimates the cost of the temple at nearly $4,000
Millions of dollars the Masonic legend of the building of Solomon’s Temple does not in every particular parallel the scriptural version especially in Those portions relating to kiram ath according to the biblical account this master Workman returned to his own country in the Masonic allegory he is fouly
Murdered on this point a wait in his new Encyclopedia of Freemasonry makes the following explanatory comment the legend of the master builder is the great allegory of masonry it happens that his figurative story is grounded on the fact of a personality mentioned in Holy Scripture but this historical background is of the
Accidents and not the essence the significance is in the allegory and not in any point of History which may lie behind it kierum as Master of the builders divided his workmen into three groups which were termed entered apprentices fellow Craftsmen and Master Masons to each division he gave certain
Passwords and Signs by which their respective Excellence could be quickly determined while all were classified according to their merits some were dissatisfied for they desired a more exalted position than they were capable of filling at last three fellow Craftsmen more daring than their companions determined to force kierum to reveal to
Them the password of the Master’s Degree knowing that kierum always went into the unfinished sanctum sanctorum at High Noon to pray these Ruffians whose names were jubila jubelo and jubelum lay in wait for him one at each of the main gates of the temple kierum about to
Leave the temple by the south gate was suddenly confronted by jubila armed with a 24in gauge upon kiram’s refusal to reveal the Master’s word the rough struck him on the throat with the rule and the wounded Master then hastened to the west gate where jubelo armed with a square awaited
Him and made a similar demand again kierum was silent and the Second Assassin struck him on the breast with the square kierum thereupon staggered to the East Gate only to be met there by jalum armed with a mul when kierum refused him the Master’s word jubelum struck the
Master between the eyes with the Mallet and kierum fell dead the body of kierum was buried by the murderers over the brow of Mount Mariah and a sprig of ACAA placed upon the grave the murderers then sought to escape punishment for their crime by embarking for Ethiopia but the port was
Closed all three were finally captured and after admitting their guilt were duly executed parties of three were then sent out by King Solomon and one of these groups discovered the newly made grave marked by the Evergreen sprig after the entered apprentices and the fellow Craftsmen had failed to resurrect their
Master from the dead he was finally raised by the Master Mason with a strong grip of a lion’s paw to the initiated Builder the name kirab signifies my father the universal Spirit one in essence three in aspect thus the murdered Master is a type of the cosmic martyr the crucified
Spirit of good the Dying God whose mystery is celebrated throughout the world among the manuscripts of Dr sigis man bastam the initiated rosac crucian appears the following extract from Von Welling concerning the true philosophic nature of the Masonic Kum the original word Kum is a radical word consisting of three consonants chth
Rash and meem one chth signif Chama the Sun’s light I.E the universal invisible cold fire of nature attracted by the sun manifested into light and sent down to us and to every planetary body belonging to the solar system two rash signifies ruach ruach IE Spirit Air wind as being
The vehicle which conveys and collects the light into numberless fosi wherein the solar rays of light are agitated by a c circular motion and manifested in heat and burning fire three me or me signifies magum water humidity but rather the mother of water I.E radical humidity or a particular kind of
Condensed air these three constitute the universal agent or fire of nature in one word Kum not hyam Albert Pike mentioned several forms of the name kierum kerm kerm and Kur the latter ending in the sacred Hindu monosyllable Om which may also be extracted from the names of the three
Murderers Pike further relates the three Ruffians to a Triad of stars in the constellation of Libra and also calls attention to the fact that the caldian god ball metamorphosed into a demon by the Jews appears in the name of each of the murderers jubila jubalo and jubelum to interpret the hamic legend requires
Familiarity with both the Pythagorean and cabalistic systems of numbers and letters and also the philosophic and astronomic cycles of the Egyptians caldan and brahans for example consider the number 33 the first temple of Solomon stood for 33 years in its pristine Splendor at the end of that time it was
Pillaged by the Egyptian king shishak and finally 588 BC it was completely destroyed by Nebuchadnezzar and the people of Jerusalem were led into captivity to Babylon see General history of Freemasonry by Robert McCoy also King David ruled for 33 years in Jerusalem the Masonic order is divided into 33 symbolic degrees there
Are 33 segments in the human spinal column and Jesus was crucified in the 33rd year of his life the efforts made to discover the origin of the hamic legend show that while the legend in its present form is comparatively modem its underlying principles run back to remotest Antiquity it is generally admitted by
Modem Masonic Scholars that the story of the martyred kierum is based upon the Egyptian rights of Osiris whose death and Resurrection figuratively portrayed the spiritual death of man and his regeneration through initiation into the Mysteries kierum is also ident identified with Hermes through the inscription on the emerald table from
These associations it is evident that kierum is to be considered as a prototype of humanity in fact he is Plato’s idea archetype of man as Adam after the fall symbolizes the idea of human degeneration so kierum through his resurrection symbolizes the idea of human regeneration on the 19th day of March
1314 Jac deole the last grandm of the Knights Templars was burned on a py erected upon that point of the iset of the sa at Paris where afterwards was erected the statue of King Henry IV see the Indian religions by Hargrave Jennings it is mentioned as a tradition
In some of the accounts of the burning writes Jennings that mole a he expired summoned Clement the pope who had pronounced the bull of abolition against the order and had condemned the grandmas to the Flames to appear within 40 days before The Supreme Eternal judge and Philip the king to the same awful
Tribunal within the space of a year both predictions were fulfilled the close relationship between Freemasonry and the original Knights Templars has caused the story of kierum to be linked with the martyrdom of Jac de mole according to this interpretation the three Ruffians who cruy slew their Master at the gates of the temple
Because he refused to reveal the secrets of his order represent the Pope the king and the executioners deole died maintaining his innocence and refusing to disclose the philosophical and magical Arcana of the Templars those who have sought to identify kierum with the murdered King Charles I first conceived the hamic
Legend to have been invented for that purpose by Elias ashol a mystical philosopher who was probably a member of the rosac crucian fraternity Charles was dethroned in 1647 and died on the Block in 1649 leaving the royalist party leaderless an attempt has been made to
Relate the term the sons of the Widow an appellation frequently applied to members of the Masonic order to this incident in English history for by the murder of her King England became a widow and all Englishman widows Sons to the Mystic Christian Mason kierum represents the Christ who in
Three days degrees raised the Temple of his body from its Earthly Seiler his three murderers were Caesar’s agent the state the Sanhedrin the church and the incited populace the mob thus considered kierum becomes the higher nature of man and the murderers are ignorance Superstition and fear the indwelling Christ can give

Suspect the modern freemasonic order was profoundly influenced by if it is not an actual outgrowth of Francis Bacon’s secret society its symbolism is undoubtedly permeated with Bacon’s two great ideals Universal education and Universal democracy the deadly enemies of universal education are ignorance Superstition and fear by which the human
Soul is held in bondage to the lowest part of its own Constitution the errant enemies of universal democracy have ever been the crown The Tiara and the torch thus kierum symbolizes that ideal state of spiritual intellectual and physical emancipation which has ever been sacrificed upon the altar of human
Selfishness Kum is the beautifier of the Eternal house modern utilitarianism how however sacrifices the beautiful for the Practical in the same breath declaring the obvious lie that selfishness hatred and Discord are practical Dr Orville Ward Owen found a considerable part of the first 32 degrees of freemasonic
Ritualism hidden in the text of the first Shakespeare folio Masonic emblems are to be observed also upon the title pages of nearly every book published by bacon Sir Francis Bacon can considered himself as a Living Sacrifice upon the altar of human need he was obviously cut
Down in the midst of his labors and no student of his new Atlantis can fail to recognize the Masonic symbolism contained therein according to the observations of Joseph Fort Newton the Temple of Solomon described by bacon in that utopian romance was not a house at all but the
Name of an ideal state is it not true that the Temple of Freemasonry is also emblem atic of a condition of society while as before stated the principles of the hamic legend are of the greatest Antiquity it is not impossible that its present form may be
Based upon incidents in the life of Lord bacon who passed through the philosophic death and was raised in Germany in an old manuscript appears the statement that the freemasonic order was formed by Alchemists and hermetic philosophers who had banded themselves together to protect their secrets against the infamous methods used by avaricious
Persons to ring from them the secret of gold making the fact that the hamic legend contains an alchemical formula gives Credence to this story thus the building of Solomon’s Temple represents the consumation of the magnumopus which cannot be realized without the assistance of kierum the universal agent the Masonic Mysteries
Teach the initiate how to prepare within his own soul a miraculous powder of projection by which it is possible for him to transmute the base lump of human ignorance perversion and Discord into an Ingot of spiritual and philosophic gold sufficient similarity exists between the Masonic kierum and the
Kundalini of Hindu mysticism to Warrant the assumption that kierum may be considered a symbol also of the spirit fire moving through the sixth ventricle of the spinal column the exact science of human regeneration is the Lost Key of Masonry for when the spirit fire is lifted up
Through the 33° or segments of the spinal column and enters into the Dome chamber of the human skull it finally passes into the pituitary body Isis where it invokes raah the pineal gland and demands the sacred name operative masonry in the fullest meaning of that term signifies the process by which the
Eye of Horus is opened EA Wallace budge has no noted that in some of the papyri illustrating the entrance of The Souls of the dead into the Judgment Hall of Osiris the deceased person has a pine cone attached to the crown of his head the Greek Mystics also carried a symbolic staff
The upper end being in the form of a pine cone which was called the thus of bakus in the human brain there is a tiny gland called the pineal body which is the sacred eye of the Ancients and corresponds to the third eye of the Cyclops little is known concerning the

Same method as the Oriental for the Arcane meanings hidden in the teachings of both schools are identical as applied to masonry the three sunbursts represent the gates of the temple at which kierum was struck there being no gate in the north because the Sun never shines from the northern angle of the
Heavens the north is the symbol of the physical because of its relation to ice crystallized water and to the body crystallized spirit in man the light shines toward the north but never from it because the body has no light of its own but shin shines with the reflected

Is the embodiment of the beautifying principle beauty is essential to the Natural unfoldment of the human soul the Mysteries held that man in part at least was the product of his environment therefore they considered it imperative that every person be surrounded by objects which would evoke the highest and noblest
