A propos du livre

Quatrième de couverture :

Are scrolls containing the secret teachings of Jesus buried in Scotland?

The discovery that the most important incantation of Freemasonry is spoken in ancient Egyptian was the turning point of a six-year quest to find the lost roots of the Order. Chris Knight and Robert Lomas, both Freemasons, soon found themselves unravelling an extraordinary chain of events that started with the solving of a murder in ancient Thebes and concluded with the deciphering of a strange medieval building on a Scottish hilltop. Their astonishing bestseller The Hiram Key raises questions that challenge some of Western civilization's most cherished beliefs.

Do the Gospels of the New Testament describe Jesus, the last claimant to the kingship of the Jews, practising the king-amking rituals of the ancient Egyptians?

Were scrolls bearing the secret teachings of Jesus buried beneath Herod's Temple shortly before the destruction of Jerusalem by the Romans in 70 AD?

Did the Knights Templar, the forerunners of modern Freemasonry, excavate those scrolls in the twelfth century and then adopt the rituals they contained?

And were these scrolls subsequently buried underneath a detailed reconstruction of Herod's Temple, on a Scottish hilltop - where they are now awairing re-excavation?

'A breakthrough book. The last four thousand years are never going to look the same again.' Graham Hancock, author of Fingerprints of the Gods and Keepers of Genesis (with Robert Bauval).

Présentation de l'éditeur :

The Hiram Key is a book that will shake the Christian world to its very roots. When Christopher Knight and Robert Lomas, both Masons, set out to find the origins of Freemasonry they had no idea that they would find themselves unraveling the true story of Jesus and the original Jerusalem Church. As a radically new picture of Jesus started to emerge, the authors came to the startling conclusion that the key rituals of modern Freemasonry were practiced by the early followers of Jesus as a means of initiation into their community.
