The Pillars of Freemasonry: Foundations of Freemasonry Series

Originally published in 1919, Masonic scholar William Harvey writes about the history and symbolism of the pair of pillars, Jachin and Boaz, which are decorated with globes, network and pomegranates. Freestanding pieces of architecture, they are prominently featured in every mason’s lodge room. Be they Doric, Corinthian or Composite, the masonic pillars contain a rich history and diverse symbolism.
