In an early KZfaq short, we looked very briefly at a Masonic Bible. Many viewers wanted to see more.
IN this video, host Maynard Edwards, 33 degree elect, shows the first pages of his personal Masonic Bible and explains their hidden Masonic purpose.

I'm not a Mason but have deep respect for their work. My father-in-law and his dad were both Masons, and my wife got some of their regalia and documents after each passed. Lucifer is an aspect of Venus, and like Pan, both revered in Rome around the time of Constantine's conversion. Both were later turned into the devil. Venus in it's rising aspect is the last star (actually planet) seen at dawn before the Sun rises. Venus in it's fallen aspect is the first star seen at dusk just as the sun sets. The Hebrew word in Isaiah is roughly translated as boastful or excessive pride, and hence the use of Lucifer used in the Greek Septuagint. The Fall of Lucifer is when Venus no longer heralds the Sun. Hopefully that clarifies matters, and I haven't thrown any pearls before swine.

Dear Brother Maynard Edwards, so nice work you´ve done! Congratulations! God (The Great Architect of the Universe) bless you with all His strength and eternal love. This is a very important explanation because it puts together different masonic bodies and different masonic teachings according to the Bible. I´m both a Master Mason and a Bible Study student in my church (American Church) and I´ve always wondered where I could possibly find in the Bible some of the instructions I´d had in the Blue Lodges degrees. Thanks once again for your efforts in sharing with us this very important subject, the Masonic Bible.

@ronnieshearer7307 Ай бұрын

It seems to me re: “God is the great architect of the universe” that God never claimed to be, nor outside of Free Masonry, no one of authority ever called God the great architect of the universe. Scripture instructs us that God created the universe. Being the architect or ruler of the universe it seems to me is satan’s gig. There is a massive difference between Creator and architect. My father, stepdad, grandad, two uncles and a cousin are/were 32nd degree masons, and so with hopefully wisdom, critical thinking and research, I’m trying to discern the truth. I have no ax to grind with anyone but am troubled to hear that the name Jesus Christ was not allowed to be spoken inside the lodge. Did I understand that correct.? If so, that seems troubling for anyone professing to be a Christian.

@ScottishRiteMasons Ай бұрын

You lack knowledge of the history of your own faith. The term Great Architect of the Universe actually is borrowed from the Presbyterian faith. John Calvin, the great protestant theologist and Presbyterian coined the term in the 1500s. It’s fine if you don’t like masonry, but you can’t just make things up and pretend they are the truth, especially when you don’t have a basis of knowledge. It’s clear that the history of your own faith is not something you have ever studied. You may be informed into your faith, you may be at church and you may read your Bible. But you may not have necessarily looked at the actual history of Christianity.

@ronnieshearer7307 Ай бұрын

When I wrote “seems to me”, it was a clue that I wasn’t declaring nor was I condemning. My interest is seeking the truth. If Calvin said that, so be it. God never said it. I noticed you didn’t answer my question regarding mentioning the name of Jesus inside the lodge? Just asking with no hidden agenda or malice To your critique of my knowledge of Christian history, I’ll just say, I may not know all that John Calvin wrote. Heck, I may not know all the prophecies and mysteries within scripture, but I DO KNOW it’s Author.

Why isn't the 33rd degree discussed in the bible? I was expecting you to mention it after the 32nd degree is clearly showed

@ScottishRiteMasons 11 ай бұрын

Good question, thanks for asking. First, when we say "degree" it is a title, not a rank (verify this in the dictionary if you wish). Second, I am a 33rd Elect, and I will tell you the 33rd degree is not really a degree like the rest of them. Our degrees, are moral and philosophical lessons. They are acted out, or conferred, like a stage play almost. BUT the KCCH (sort of the 32 1/2) and the 33rd are what we call HONORS. You don't just get those titles. They are given after you have worked in the fraternity for some time and done good things. You get elected to receive those degrees, or titles. Since you can't just show up and get them, AND they don't have a specific lesson attached, they would not either one be included in the list of regular degrees.

@Bargadiel 11 ай бұрын

So if the gist of the morality plays and degrees are laid out here in basic form, what really are the "secrets" that a mason isn't supposed to talk about? Would it just be the specifics of the ritual practices, and maybe some hidden meanings that aren't obvious at first? I don't seek specific answers here, just wondering what it is that's considered secret since it doesn't seem all that controversial/spooky to me. Just seems like some ritual work that can help someone better understand themselves. Even considering what I know about allegedly "spooky" occultism, Freemasonry doesn't seem negative or ill-intented at all.

@ScottishRiteMasons 11 ай бұрын

Freemasonry has no ill intent. As you mention, we have some private initiatory ceremonies, but all of what Masonry teaches can be found in the Bible in some form or fashion. Originally the "secrets" were trade secrets of the working stone masons.

“You can’t copyright scripture.” True, but you _can_ copyright a specific translation of scripture. The King James Version is a bit unique in that it is in the public domain everywhere outside of Britain, in which the copyright is held by the British Crown. Most every other translation, meaning all except those that predate the King James, holds copyright protection everywhere there is copyright law. So unless you cite the King James Version outside of Britain, or cite an even older translation, or translate the scripture yourself, you have to credit the organization that produced the translation you are quoting, and follow the specific rules of the copyright on exactly how much you are allowed to republish, and in what way you can republish the translated text.

As you said, it is a King James Version bible, just like the bible that I was given when I was a young boy. I bought my Masonic bible from the Grand Lodge as my home Lodge did not present a bible to the newly raised Master Mason. After that, I filled out my Masonic page, had several of the brethren that were still around sign it, and I carried it with me when I joined the Scottish Rite, and had it signed as well. As a Master Mason, I have reached the pinnacle of Freemasonry. My membership in Ancient Accepted Scottish Rite, SJ is for me to further help my journey in being a better man, husband, father, and member of my community, with the Great Light of Masonry (for me, a Christian, the Holy Bible) as a guide and comfort. Thank you Bro. Maynard for sharing this.

I'm not sure why this video popped up on my feed but, it was a good video. I received my Masonic Bible when I took my First Degree back around 1990. I eventually became a Third Degree Master Mason. Around 1995 my father and I had a falling out and that was the last time I went to a lodge meeting. A year later I was laying a sprig of Acacia on my father's casket. Years went by and 13 years ago I moved from NY to Wisconsin. I had a coworker that wanted me to join him at a lodge meeting. I discovered that I was not able to join the lodge in WI because I stopped paying my dues back in NY around 1996. Little did I know that my father had always taken care of my dues up until he passed away. I never once gave it a thought. Until the back dues were resolved from NY, the Wisconsin lodge doesn't want to know me. I made a couple of attempts to contact the lodge in NY but they never replied. At this point I feel like a banished Master Mason. You would think that if the Wisconsin lodge wanted me as a member that they would have done more to help resolve this situation. Either way, I will always look back at those times and remember how wonderful the brothers at that lodge were.

It’s simply the King James Translation, which is still one of the most widely used translations You can buy Masonic bibles one Amazon. Or anywhere really. The only thing that makes them Masonic is the emblem, sometimes there are study guides which tie particular Masonic lessons to the specific chapter and verse in the Bible and often a Masonic family tree.

I also hope to join the Shrine one day also. I'm can already tell that I'm going to be what one brother at the lodge calls a Mason-a-holic 😁. However I will keep my cable tow in mind and avoid burnout. I love Freemasonry too much for it to become a chore for me.

Jesus is my personal Lord and Savior and I am proud to proclaim Him as such. I believe in the father, son and Holy Spirit and the Nicene creed. So you’re wrong. The difference between me and you is that I was taught not to hate people who think differently. I can still say a man is a good man even if he has a different faith. To me, your decision to hate, ridicule and frankly spread lies about Masons, whom you simply don’t know anything about- is the definition of evil.

I have a 1957 edition of the A J Holman old King James Version (Blue French Morocco) with the box, inserts, Book Mark by Edmund Van Wyck. Perhaps this is the standard. Before the Bible it starts with The Masonic Creed then goes into the building of King Solomon's Temple with detailed illustrations. Other things like referencing Masonry in the Bible, Q&A, Index of Curious Facts, structure of Freemasonry hierarchy pictorially. The first pages were never signed by the Brother it would have been given to or from what Lodge and no other signatures from visiting brethren and friends.

"because you can't copyright scripture" - FALSE ... Sorry Brother, but you got this one wrong. A lot of Bible Translations are copyrighted, and the text follows normal copyright laws like any other work. The King James Version is in Public Domain because of how long ago it was produced, in every country except the United Kingdom where it holds a distinction of being the only book remaining in perpetual copyright which is owned by the Crown. So, even this version of the text actually is copyrighted in the UK, but not here in the US.

@ScottishRiteMasons 11 ай бұрын

I can’t speak to the UK. But I have some considerable knowledge of copyright law as it pertains to public domain and I’ll tell you no court in the US would even take a case regarding a translation of scripture unless that scripture or the translation was in some form or fashion fundamentally different. At the end of the day, there are only so many ways to say “let there be light”. But I supposed there’s always some one who will try. Lol. Good point to mention tho.

@JeffDayPoppy 11 ай бұрын

@@ScottishRiteMasons I think you should look into this. How do you think the good people who have done the various translations like the NIV, ESV, NASB, fund their work? There is a huge amount of scholarship and hard work that goes into a translation - it isn't just a choice of words, but examining the manuscripts and maintaining consistency across one of the largest text projects most people would ever work on. They get paid royalties by the companies that print Bibles, and if anyone tried to print an NIV or an NRSV without obtaining licensing, you can bet they would get sued! You can't just lift someone else's gargantuan effort and slap your own name on it - that's a hugely immoral act of theft. Yes, courts would most certainly handle this! As an example, the NIV's licensing says "The NIV text may be quoted in any form (written, visual, electronic or audio), up to and inclusive of five hundred (500) verses without express written permission of the publisher, providing the verses do not amount to a complete book of the Bible nor do the verses quoted account for twenty-five percent (25%) or more of the total text of the work in which they are quoted."
