The Great Pyramid, written by English Freemason John Chapman in 1896, is a collection of essays exploring the divine inspiration behind the Great Pyramid of Giza and the symbolism encoded in its dimensions. Chapman delves into the belief that the pyramid holds a special significance for the future, specifically in relation to the wars of Armageddon that he predicts will break out on the European continent in the 20th century.
This particular copy of The Great Pyramid bears the author’s presentation inscription to the noted Quebec Freemason, Dr. G.W. Lovejoy, emphasizing the connection between the book’s content and the beliefs and practices of the Freemasonry.
Chapman’s fascination with the Great Pyramid is rooted in the belief that it holds ancient wisdom and knowledge that can be deciphered through the study of its dimensions and architecture. He argues that the pyramid’s design and placement on the land holds a deeper meaning and purpose, and that by understanding these aspects, one can gain insight into the greater mysteries of the universe.
The author also draws connections between the pyramid and the beliefs and practices of the Freemasonry. He suggests that the pyramid’s design and construction mirror the principles and teachings of the fraternity, and that its significance to the Freemasons is rooted in this connection.
