“A very little key will open a very heavy door.”

Charles Dickens, “Hunted Down”

Why do the Freemasons place a Square and Compass on top of an open Bible, and often with the letter “G’ in the center? Why is the ‘G’ surrounded by glowing rays of light? By now, you should be able to answer the second question. The letter ‘G’ is the 7th letter of the alphabet and refers, in part, to the rearranged text of the Bible with 7 letters per line. If this is true, then why has no Mason ever revealed it?

The simplest explanation for why nothing has been leaked is that there is no risk of a Mason divulging this secret because Masons are never taught the true secret. This gives them a certain level of plausible deniability and protects the secret without anyone having a need to know the secret. So, if you ask a Mason if there is a code in the Bible and their symbols represent this fact, they will deny it. They don’t deny it because they are keeping a great secret to themselves. They deny it because they don’t know it, they have never been taught the real secret. I say all of this without being a Mason or having any inside information, so my assumptions are always subject to revision if anyone wishes to offer correction that is verifiable.

To protect the secret and the treasure, there is no need for the rank and file members of Freemasonry to have any working knowledge of the secret they protect. What an amazing accomplishment to create a semi-public organization that almost anyone can join, that has lasted for hundreds of years, and has protected a priceless secret without a single word leaking out. Governments and their super secret spy agencies can’t even make this claim.

Euclidian Geometry

Sometimes the big secret is the simplest possible explanation. The Square and Compass are the tools of Euclidian Geometry. Before the Key can be constructed, it is necessary to understand a little about Euclidian Geometry, which is a mathematical system attributed to the Greek mathematician Euclid of Alexandria. Euclid’s Elements is the earliest known systematic discussion of geometry. It has been one of the most influential books in history, as much for its method as for its mathematical content.

The early Greeks did not posses the mathematical knowledge of fractions, they could only use whole numbers. Because of this, it was impossible to divide a line that had an odd number length into two equal segments. For example, they could not divide 5 by 2, to get 2.5. To construct physical objects and buildings, they had to develop another system. They used geometry to get around the problem of not having fractions. The fundamental tools of the practitioner of Euclidian geometry were the square and compass. With these two simple tools, they could find the midpoint of any line, the center of a circle, etc. They could draw a perfect circle and draw perfect angles of 30, 45, and 60 degrees without ever measuring anything. They could bisect any angle without measuring or even knowing what that angle was.

This is why the symbol of the Freemasons is the Square and Compass and it is why these tools are laid on top of the Bible on the altar in Freemason rituals and symbols. These tools along with the techniques of Euclidian geometry are required to construct the Key on the pages of the Bible.

There is a code hidden in the Bible and it was intended to be broken. For this reason, every step must be based on clues found in the Bible, not by making random guesses. The code outlined in the previous section started with the word “TRUTH” arranged in pattern that follows the moves of a knight in the game of chess. To continue decoding the rest of the message a Key is required. It appears that the Key will be graphical in nature, therefore, we need something that tells us how to draw the Key. The logical starting point is with the word “TRUTH, shown in Figure 1.

“TRUTH” begins on line 13 of the 7 letter arrangement. Since Jesus is the first and last and we are to follow Jesus to break the code, it makes sense to look for the Key on line 7 of the 13 letter per line arrangement that was used to find NOAHS TRUTH. The word “ARKE” can be found on line 7 in Figure 2.

“ARKE” is in positions 4 through 7 of line 7. The first and last letters of “ARKE” on line 7 produce the values for JESUS CHRIST and confirm that this is the correct word for the Key.

Line 7, position 4 = 74 = JESUS

Line 7, position 7 = 77 = CHRIST

The first and last letters on line 7 and the first and last letters in column 13 are “NW” = 37.

The first letter of the text and the Bible is “I” = 9.

9 X 37 = 333, and because “NW” is repeated, this gives the value 333 + 333 = 666, which confirms this grouping of letters and the word “ARKE”.

Combined with “NOAHS” in the cup, we are being directed to use “NOAHS ARKE” as the Key for the decoding the Bible. Noah is instructed by God to build the Arke in Genesis 6: 14-16.

14. Make thee an Arke of Gopher-wood: roomes shalt thou make in the arke, and shalt pitch it within and without with pitch.
15. And this is the fashion, which thou shalt make it of: the length of the arke shal be three hundred cubits, the breadth of it fifty cubits, and the height of it thirtie cubits.
16. A window shalt thou make to the arke, and in a cubite shalt thou finish it aboue; and the doore of the arke shalt thou set in the side thereof: With lower, second, and third stories shalt thou make it.

Verses 15 and 16 actually describe the dimensions of the Arke and contain a total of 74 words. Since JESUS=74, this can be taken as a confirmation of these two verses. Including punctuation, there are a total of 304 characters in these two verses. Adding the words to the number of characters give,

74 + 304 = 378

378 – 18 = 360

18 is a number that can be related to 666, so 18 might be taken as a clue to look at the number 360. There are a total of 360 degrees in a circle, so this might be interpreted to mean that the measurements of the Arke are to used as degrees, not cubits.

If a graphical key is to be drawn in the Bible, then something should tell where to draw it. Going back to the decoded word “TRUTH” in Figure 1, the word started on line 13 and ended on line 18, giving a reference to Revelation 13:18. In the 1611 King James Bible, Revelation is titled “The Revelation”, which is 13 letters. There are also a total of 18 pages in The Revelation.

Drawing The Arke

The clues appear to indicate that a geometric construction should be drawn on one or more pages of The Bible, and The Revelation appears to be the starting point for said construction. The most logical place to begin is at the beginning of The Revelation. The first thing that would be needed to create a geometric key is a framework, or starting point for the construction. The pages of the King James Bible are framed with a series of lines that make a perfect aid for constructing a geometric key. Due to the age of the King James Bibles, the pages have deformed slightly. That combined with the available copies, the border lines are slightly warped. The first step is to try and square up the frame as best we can. Figure 3 shows the first page of The Revelation with the adjusted frame lines shown in red.

Because the code is based on the concept of first and last, the last instruction of verse 15 will be the first thing to construct. It says the height is 30 cubits, or degrees. Height refers to the vertical lines in the center of the page. Drawing a line 30 degrees out from each of the two center vertical lines on both top and bottom, a diamond shape is created. Verse 16 says “A window shalt thou make to the arke, and in a cubite shalt thou finish it aboue”. The diamond shape shown in Figure 4 is the window. The word “CUBITE” has a value of 60 and refers to the 60 degree included angle at the top and bottom of the diamond.

The internal angle at the top and bottom of the window is 60 degrees. Verse 15 says “the length of the arke shalbe three hundred cubits”. The outside angle of the window is 300 degrees. The 300 cubit (degree) length of the Arke confirms the outside angle of the window.

After constructing the window, verse 16 continues, “and the doore of the arke shalt thou set in the side thereof”. Notice that the left and right corners of the window fall in the white space on each side of the page. The door is set in the side thereof, refers to the sides of the window. A door is usually rectangular in shape. The door is created by drawing a vertical line at the left and right corners of the window, as shown by the blue lines in Figure 5.

The only remaining dimension of the ark is “the breadth of it fifty cubits”. The purpose of the two center vertical lines is revealed when the fifty degree angle is drawn. The “breadth” measurement implies that the next line will cross the entire width of the page. Starting at the left and right corners of the window, a line drawn at a 50 degree angle from the door line will intersect the opposite door line at the top and bottom borders. If a single vertical line was used in the center of the page, the fifty degree angle would not intersect the corners of the door. Figure 6 shows the “Breadth” lines.

Here it is interesting to note that the portion of the Key constructed so far contains the Masonic Square and Compass, shown in Figure 7, with the square at 100 degrees versus the usual 90 degrees. When viewed from an angle, the square will not appear to be a perfect 90 degree angle.

The final step in constructing this part of the key is described at the end of verse 16. “With lower, second, and third stories shalt thou make it”, which tells us to draw three stories or floors. This would be three horizontal lines, one at the center of the page, and the other two at the intersection of the “Breadth” lines, as shown in Figure 8.

Final confirmation of this portion of the key is found by extending the upper and lower stories to intersect with the “Height” lines. The resulting shape is the six-pointed Star of David, as shown in Figure 9.

The Star of David shape is confirmed in Revelation 22:16.

I Jesus have sent mine Angel to testifie unto you these things in the Churches. I am the roote and the offspring of David, and the bright and morning starre.

Noah’s Arke has been constructed using the instructions provided by God. This is just one part of the Key. The Star of David is the union of two equilateral triangles, shown in Figure 10.

The upward pointing triangle represents the Male, and the downward triangle represents the Female. The triangles have also been used to represent Fire and Water in Alchemy. This reference to male and female provides the clue for the second half of the key. After Noah built the Arke, God instructed him to take the animals into the Arke so that they would all be safe from the coming flood.

The Beasts Enter The Arke

Starting in Genesis 6:17 and continuing through Genesis 7:10, the story of Noah continues with the instructions to bring the male and female of each animal into the Arke.

Genesis Chapter 6

17. And behold, I, euen I doe bring a flood of waters vpon the earth, to destroy all flesh, wherein is the breath of life from vnder heauen, and euery thing that is in the earth shall die.
18. But with thee wil I establish my Couenant: and thou shalt come into the Arke, thou, and thy sonnes, and thy wife, and thy sonnes wiues with thee.
19. And of euery liuing thing of all flesh, two of euery sort shalt thou bring into the Arke, to keepe them aliue with thee: they shall be male and female.
20. Of fowles after their kinde, and of cattel after their kinde: of euery creeping thing of the earth after his kinde, two of euery sort shall come vnto thee, to keepe them aliue.
21. And take thou vnto thee of all food that is eaten, and thou shalt gather it to thee; and it shall be for food, for thee, and for them.
22. Thus did Noah; according to all that God commanded him, so did he.

Genesis Chapter 7

1. And the LORD saide vnto Noah, Come thou and all thy house into the Arke: for thee haue I seene righteous before me, in this generation.
2. Of euery cleane beast thou shalt take to thee by seuens, the male and his female: and of beastes that are not cleane, by two, the male and his female.
3. Of fowles also of the aire, by seuens, the male & the female; to keepe seed aliue vpon the face of all the earth.
4. For yet seuen dayes, and I will cause it to raine vpon the earth, fortie dayes, and forty nights: and euery liuing substance that I haue made, will I destroy, frō off the face of the earth.
5. And Noah did according vnto all that the LORD commanded him.
6. And Noah was sixe hundred yeeres old, when the flood of waters was vpon the earth.
7. And Noah went in, and his sonnes, and his wife, and his sonnes wiues with him, into the Arke, because of the waters of the Flood.
8. Of cleane beasts, & of beasts that are not cleane, & of fowles, and of euery thing that creepeth vpon the earth,
9. There went in two and two vnto Noah into the Arke, the male & the female, as God had commanded Noah.
10. And it came to passe after seuen dayes, that the waters of the Flood were vpon the earth.

The next thing we need to understand is the meaning of the terms clean and unclean beasts. These terms are related to the laws governing what animals could and could not be eaten. The law is given in Leviticus 11, but verses 42 and 43 give the needed information.

41. Every swarming thing that swarms on the ground is detestable; it shall not be eaten.
42. Whatever goes on its belly, and whatever goes on all fours, or whatever has many feet, any swarming thing that swarms on the ground, you shall not eat, for they are detestable.

Genesis 7:2 tells Noah to take into the Arke, “beastes that are not cleane, by two, the male and his female”. According to the law in Leviticus 11:42 any beast that crawls on its belly is unclean. Snakes or serpents crawl on their belly and are therefore unclean. Figure 11 shows the headpiece at the top of the first page of Revelation. There are 9 pairs of entwined serpents.

In Genesis 7:2, “beastes that are not cleane by two”, refers to the two entwined serpents. “The male and his female” referse to the male and female triangles that form the Star of David. To take the two serpents into the Arke, a line is drawn from top to bottom of the page that is aligned with the center of each pair of serpents. Figure 12 shows these lines drawn into the Arke.

As the beasts enter the Arke, they will be placed on one of the three floors. They will not be on any of the diagonal construction lines. The beast lines intersect the floor lines in eight locations each over the text. The central line does not fall over the text, so it is ignored. The eight intersections with the three floors produces the number 888, or the value of Jesus in Greek. The intersection points are shown in gold on Figure 13. As a confirmation recall from the “Signature of God” page that a similar arrangement was used to find the name of God in Genesis 1:1

The construction of the Key in the King James Bible can be confirmed with a similar construction in the Maranatha puzzle book, found on the page titled, “The Key in Maranatha”.

The development of the Key is continued on “The Key – Part 2”.
