32 Secret Paths of Solomon, Sunday on Masonic Central.

Freemasonry and the Qabbalah have a tacit relationship. In many deep philosophical discussions, the two often come up as being interrelated but just as often leave the conversation without a clear connection defined. As a Mason, we can start to study where the Jewish Mysticism has been woven in, but without a deep degree of study and practice, the two still seem as distant as night and day. This week on Masonic Central, our guest Timothy Hogan will join us to talk about this mysticism and help us join some of the loose threads the three degrees with the various paths and points on the Tree of Life. Hogan is the author of the new book “The 32 Secret Paths of Solomon – a New Examination of the Qabbalah in Freemasonry” which is a new examination of Qabbalah and its interconnectivity with Freemasonry. In it, he demonstrates how there are different interpretations of Freemasonry that can be found in the Sephirot and Paths, exploring Gematria and Masonic ritual. It stands to be an interesting exploration and one sure to enlighten as much as it leaves us wanting to know more.
