Product Description

Review
"A breakthrough book. The last four thousand years are never going to look the same again." -- Graham Hancock

Product Description
The long forgotten, early rituals of Freemasonry tell a parallel story to the Bible. But they describe events the Bible does not mention - about a secret theology based on the ancient science of astronomy that was once the preserve of kings and high priests. This collection of long neglected Masonic texts have been distilled into a complete story which the authors have designated; The Masonic Testament which, for the first time in many hundreds of years, lays out the unexpected foundation of Masonic philosophy. The quest to find the prehistoric science behind these rituals spans five thousand years and four continents, and leads the authors to uncover a Stone Age cult of Venus worship that was passed down to Solomon and later Jewish kings. Working with the latest finding of archaeology and new biblical evidence, they demonstrate how the Venus cult survived to be embraced by the last, would-be king of the Jews; Jesus Christ himself. In this, the final stage of their fourteen year quest to find the origins of Masonic ritual, the researchers who brought you The Hiram Key, follow many strange byways of astrology, ritualistic sex, and child sacrifice before finally reaching the real science that is the basis of Freemasonry. The whole surprising and shocking story is told in "The Book of Hiram".

5.0 out of 5 stars Adoniram, 8 Dec 2004
By A Customer
I Loved the book although,at times it could be a bit "heavy." For those who can persevere, It is a great reference to all interested in Freemasonry and all its related subjects.... as are all the previous books by the same authors... Nobody knows where they came from... but this book gives some amazing scope for thought and sows the seeds for those who are wiling to propagate and cultivate all the shoots that arise! Freemasonry in Scotland (my territory) and England differ somewhat incredibly, and to me as a very open-minded Freemason, this book should be read by all, whether sceptics or those involved in the subject. the rites referred to in the second part of the book titled "The Masonic Testament" are in particular very pertinent to Scottish traditions, and many shown are still adhered to in posterity.
The "Book of Hiram" as far as I am concerned shows considerable respect by the authours to those Scottish Masons who will uphold and maintain the rites passed down by our ancestors who held the same beliefs. One of the most truthful quotes from this book reads...."Freemasonry claims that it is not a religion and that it is compatible with the belief systems of all religions. Although it does provide a focal point for many people who are not active in any particular faith and for them it is a replacement for religion in that it provides spiritual values without a requirement to subscribe to an entire belief system."
I think this says it all for most freethinking Masons....please read this book if you want the best up-to-date version of what it is all about!

5.0 out of 5 stars THe best place for any reader to explore Freemasonry, 29 Aug 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: The Book of Hiram: Freemasonry, Venus and the Secret Key to the Life of Jesus (Hardcover)
Throughout the last ten years many books have entered the market exploring and exposing Freemasonry, the Knights Templar and the ancient connections that these groups have had in our distant past back to the time of the Egyptians. The Book of Hiram is the fourth in a series explored by Chrsitopher Knight & Robert Lomas.


In this title, Knight & Lomas take us even further back, to the Stone Age where sites such as Stonehenge and Newgrange in Ireland were astronomically aligned to the movements of the stars and the rising and falling of Venus as the Morning and Evening Star in particular.


As always, I was rivetted by the work and detailed research presented by both these authors. Both are themselves Freemasons and both have an intense desire not only to fully understand the seemingly strange rituals held in Freemasonry but also to trace the origins of these rituals and reasons for the secrecy which surrounds them.


Today, many in the twenty-first century take the liberties of Democracy, equality, a justice of liberty and religious tolerance for granted. The world was not always so, and in order to achieve these goals, many thousands of years and many lives had to be sacrificed, often under the cloak of secrecy in order to wrest away power from those who advocated autocratic states and a trail by ordeal. The French Inquisition, the American War of Independence, the French Revolution and the Second World War are cases in point.


Whether you regard the Freemasons as a demonic order or not, after studying their history, their basic precepts as laid out at the end of this book and the goals that they set out to achieve over many centuries, one has to admire their tenacity and determination and perhaps....... even take some time to thank them for once instead of denouncing them?


Much like all orders and groups, there are those who would use their connections for humanitarian aims and those who would use them for selfish acquisitive purposes. The recent exposure of homosexual abuse in the Roman Catholic Church is a case in point. Not all Roman Catholic priests are sexual child abuses, not all Roman Catholics are bad people. Mother Theresa was a case in point and she was a nun under the order of a Roman Catholic church.


So to I believe it is with much of Freemasonry, which in some instances has been connected to the Illuminati, much denounced in recent times for their apparent attempts at world domination and global control. These were not the aims of the Knights Templar or those of Freemasonry in general, though I am sure that some used and are possibly still using these orders to achieve such aims. I believe that Knight & Lomas have only the highest ideals in mind and their willingness to share their truth and the riddles that they have solved against all odds and much criticism is admirable to say the least.


Should you wish to explore Freemasonry, then these authors are the best place to start, not only in The Book of Hiram but in all their works.

4.0 out of 5 stars very interesting, 8 Jan 2005
By Maureen Wesley (British Columbia) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
The authors have some really interesting and intriguing comments and observations about the bible that you won't find elsewhere. Very common sense writers, lacking some aspects of spirituality that would have added greater dimension to their story. But they are a couple of really down to earth guys and they might not have been able to make some of the points they've made if they weren't the way they are. There are lots of more inspirational books but this is an interesting and valuable addition to whatever point of view you might have. It is a fascinating book and I am glad I read it.
