This anonymous work from 1935 looks at the two brazen pillars at the entrance of King Solomon's Temple and how they represent one of the most enigmatic symbols in Freemasonry, surrounded by a rich tapestry of historical and mythical interpretations. These pillars, often confused with ancient stone pillars mentioned in old Masonic manuscripts, embody a blend of pre-flood knowledge and the architectural influences of Hiram Abif, drawing from Egyptian temple designs. Despite the myriad legends and varying accounts regarding their dimensions and significance, these pillars symbolize the enduring nature of Masonic traditions and teachings.
