The Sprig of Acacia

Foundations of Freemasonry Series

De: Albert G. Mackey

Narrado por: Michael Strader

There is no symbol more interesting to the masonic student than the Sprig of Acacia—not only on account of its own peculiar import—but also because it introduces us to an extensive and delightful field of research: that, namely, which embraces the symbolism of sacred plants. In all the ancient systems of religion, and Mysteries of initiation, there was always some one plant consecrated, in the minds of the worshippers and participants, by a peculiar symbolism, and therefore is held in extraordinary veneration as a sacred emblem.
