Freemasonry (Part Three)
The Reality of Freemasonry
In another definition of Freemasonry, Dr. Sabir Ta‘imah states in his book on Freemasonry:
“Freemasonry is a Jewish institution—whether in its history, its degrees and teachings, its symbolic terminology, or its explanations and interpretations. In other words, this institution is Jewish from beginning to end.” [1]
The Freemasonic Encyclopedia published in 1906 states: “Every lodge must be a symbol of the Jewish Temple, and indeed it is so. Every Master who sits upon his chair represents the King of the Jews, and every Freemason is considered an embodiment of a Jewish worker.” [2]
This fact is reinforced by the reality that the technical language, symbols, and rituals used in Freemasonry are fully consistent with Jewish terminology and customs.
For example, dates written on official Freemasonic correspondence and documents are based on the Hebrew calendar and months, and the Hebrew alphabet is used in their writings.
Although the external appearance and ceremonial forms of Freemasonry vary depending on the social environment in which it operates, its outward slogans have always been: “Liberty,” “Equality,” and “Fraternity.” [3]
In the book Al-Ramziyyah (published in 1928), it is stated: “Honoring and glorifying the Jewish element must be the most important duty of every Freemason, because this element has preserved the divine, unchanging tradition throughout centuries and generations.” [4]
The Jewish Encyclopedia, under the term “Masonry,” states: “The technical language, gestures, symbols, and rituals of Freemasonry are all Jewish.” [5]
One of the leaders of Freemasonry, Abdul-Halim Elias Khoury, says: “In the depths of Freemasonry lies an Israelite ideology, and in its history, traditions, symbols, and secrets, the sacred Jewish myths are manifest. Freemasonry is, in truth, an institution that is Jewish and derived from a wholly Jewish source.” [6]
Therefore, Freemasonry—in its movements, behavior, and its entire character and structure—carries a distinctly Jewish color and identity. It is evident that Royal Freemasonry (al-Masūniyyah al-Mulūkiyyah) points in its principles, teachings, degrees, and objectives to the sanctification of what is found in the Torah and the reconstruction of the Temple of Solomon (AS).[7]
The European Freemasonic Encyclopedia states: “Every Masonic lodge must be built according to the model of the Jewish Temple, every lodge master must represent the Jewish kingdom, and every Mason is the embodiment of a Jew.” [8]
The Lexicon of Masonry and Masons states: “Every person must, before joining Freemasonry, embrace Judaism spiritually and intellectually.” [9]
All of these evidences clearly reveal the reality of Freemasonry—a truth that many people have been deceived about. For those seeking further evidence, this example may be noted:
In the sessions of Freemasons who have attained the 33rd degree—the highest degree—this text is recited: “We shall return to the homeland of Solomon son of David, and we shall rebuild the Holy Temple; we shall read the Talmud therein, and we shall implement everything contained in the commandments and covenants; and for the glory of Israel, we shall spare no effort.”[10]
In the city of Cairo, Egypt, there is also a Freemasonic club on Touson Street where all the tools and furnishings bear the Israeli six-pointed star.
Flags raised there represent the Twelve Tribes of Israel, and all the plaques, furniture, publications, and notices in the club carry British and Israeli colors and symbols.[11]
From all these definitions and explanations, it becomes clear that this movement is a Jewish, secretive, and mysterious one, seeking to restore the lost glory and power of the Jews and reclaim the so-called “Promised Land.”
The reason they call themselves “Free Masons” is that they believe they will one day rebuild the Temple.
