Masonic Book Club, Vol. 11A: Biblical Characters in Freemasonry

Freemasons, as a result of their Masonic experience, are aware of the close relationship between Freemasonry and the Bible. Masonry itself is a constant search for light. The Bible is fittingly called "The Great Light in Masonry." Therefore it is proper that Masons should seek light by a continued reliance on the Bible, - the fountain for much of that sought for light. But non-Masons are often unaware of this relationship and, therefore, frequently misunderstand and misjudge Freemasonry. For that reason, the nature of that kinship should be explained.
