Introduction
This is Albert Pikes' 861 page volume of 'lectures' on the esoteric roots of
Freemasonry, specifically the 32-degree Scottish Rite. Until 1964, this book
was given to every Mason completing the 14th degree in the Southern
jurisdiction of the US Scottish Rite Freemasons. Masonic lectures are
standard oral presentations given during initiation to a new degree.
Lectures provide background material for initiates and the discuss duties of
the degree in general terms. They do not present details of the rituals,
gestures, regalia, etc., for which one must consult other books on Masonry.
Pike states right off that half of the text is copied from other works.
Unfortunately none of these quotes are properly cited, and in most cases it
is only a shift in style which allows us to identify a quote. There are also
lapses of fact and logic. So it would be a mistake to use this work as an
authoritative source without additional research and critical thinking. That

said, Morals and Dogma is a huge, rambling treasure-house of esoteric
data, particularly on the Kabalah and ancient Mystery religions. Whether
you just browse these pages or study it from one end to the other, this is a
must-read book for anyone looking for long-lost knowledge.
This etext uses Unicode extensively, particularly for Greek and Hebrew, and
your browser needs to be Unicode compliant to view it properly.

PREFACE.
THE following work has been prepared by authority of the Supreme Council
of the Thirty-third Degree, for the Southern Jurisdiction of the United
States, by the Grand Commander, and is now published by its direction. It
contains the Lectures of the Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite in that
jurisdiction, and is specially intended to be read and studied by the
Brethren of that obedience, in connection with the Rituals of the Degrees. It
is hoped and expected that each will furnish himself with a copy, and make
himself familiar with it; for which purpose, as the cost of the work consists
entirely in the printing and binding, it will be furnished at a price as
moderate as possible. No individual will receive pecuniary profit from it,
except the agents for its sale.
It has been copyrighted, to prevent its republication elsewhere, and the
copyright, like those of all the other works prepared for the Supreme
Council, has been assigned to Trustees for that Body. Whatever profits may
accrue from it will be devoted to purposes of charity.
The Brethren of the Rite in the United States and Canada will be afforded
the opportunity to purchase it, nor is it forbidden that other Masons shall;
but they will not be solicited to do so.
In preparing this work, the Grand Commander has been about equally
Author and Compiler; since he has extracted quite half its contents from the
works of the best writers and most philosophic or eloquent thinkers.
Perhaps it would have been better and more acceptable if he had extracted
more and written less.
