The book titled The Obelisk and Freemasonry: Egyptian Symbols Compared with those Discovered in America is written by John A. Weisse. The book is an exploration of the similarities between the symbols used by Freemasonry and those found in ancient Egypt. The author examines the history of the obelisk, a tall, four-sided monument that was used in ancient Egypt as a symbol of power and stability. He then compares this symbol to the use of columns in Freemasonry, which are also seen as symbols of strength and stability.The book also delves into the history of Freemasonry in America, tracing its roots back to the colonial era. Weisse argues that the symbols used by Freemasonry, including the obelisk and other Egyptian-inspired motifs, were brought to America by early Freemasons who were influenced by the ancient Egyptian culture.Throughout the book, Weisse provides detailed analyses of various symbols used by Freemasonry, including the all-seeing eye, the pyramid, and the square and compass. He also explores the significance of these symbols in both ancient Egypt and Freemasonry, and how they have been adapted over time.Overall, The Obelisk and Freemasonry is a thought-provoking and informative book that sheds light on the connections between ancient Egypt and Freemasonry, and the enduring influence of these symbols on American culture.1880. Anyone who will read this book and consider its illustrations will realize that secret societies like Freemasonry existed in remote antiquity and were the prerogative of kings, hierophants and magnates. Absolutely everything to know on obelisks, their origin, construction, mystical significance, use, and esoteric purposes.
