The Preservation of Gnostic Symbols Amongst the Freemasons (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781169217638)

""The Preservation of Gnostic Symbols Amongst the Freemasons"" by C.W. King is a book that explores the connection between the ancient Gnostic symbols and the Freemasonry movement. The author delves into the history of Gnosticism and how its teachings and symbols were adopted by the Freemasons. He also examines the various symbols used in Freemasonry and how they relate to Gnosticism, including the all-seeing eye, the square and compass, and the pillars of Jachin and Boaz. King argues that the preservation of these symbols within Freemasonry is a testament to the enduring influence of Gnosticism on Western culture. This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of Gnosticism, Freemasonry, and the intersection of these two movements.THIS 64 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Gnostics and their Remains Ancient and Mediaeval, by C.
