  This is the extraordinary story of Knight and Lomas's fourteen year quest to uncover the secret teachings buried beneath Roslin Chapel near Edinburgh. Their quest ends with extraordinary revelations about early human history - the origins of Christianity, of Freemasonry and of science. They show that all were charged with a belief in a secret cosmic code, linking, for example, the Exodus from Egypt, the founding of Solomon's Temple and the Star of Bethlehem. This book reveals for the first time why there were such high expectations of a Messiah at the time of the birth of Jesus Christ. The Book of Hiram will change everything you thought you knew about both the Bible and Freemasonry.

  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.
