The Saints of Joseph Smith's era accepted the then-common belief that Masonry ultimately sprang from Solomon's temple. Thus, Brigham Young and Heber C. Kimball understood Masonry to be a corrupted form of a pristine ancient temple rite. <ref>See Footnote 30, {{FR-10-1-4}}</ref>  One author later wrote that masonry as an "institution dates its origins many centuries back, it is only a perverted Priesthood stolen from the Temples of the Most High." <ref>{{Instructor1 | author=H.

It was a common 19th century belief of both Mormons and Masons that Masonry had it origins in the Temple of Solomon. A few Masons cling to this view even today. An opinion not, it turns out, supported by the historical evidence but it was only an opinion. When studying the relationship between Mormonism and the fraternal order known as Freemasonry it is important to acknowledge and understand the perspective expressed by nineteenth century Latter-day Saints. Below are seven examples of what some Mormons thought about where the rites and teachings of the Masons came from (some of these people were also Masons). Notice that some of these quotes purport to reflect the view of the Prophet Joseph Smith on this subject.

Thus, to Joseph's contemporaries, there was much more to the LDS temple endowment than just warmed-over Freemasonry. None of Joseph's friends complained that he had simply adapted Masonic ritual for his own purposes. Rather, they were aware of the common ritual elements, but understood that Joseph had restored something that was both ritually and theologically ancient and God-given.

Portanto, para os contemporâneos de Joseph, havia muito mais na investidura do templo SUD do que uma Maçonaria requentada. Nenhum dos amigos de Joseph reclamou que ele houvesse simplesmente adaptado o ritual maçônico à seus próprios interesses. Em vez disso, eles estavam cientes dos elementos rituais comuns, mas compreendiam que Joseph havia restaurado algo que era tanto ritualmente como teologicamente antigo, e dado por Deus.

Os Santos da era de Joseph Smith aceitavam a crença, comum à época, que a Maçonaria teria surgido do Templo de Salomão. Assim, Brigham Young e Heber C. Kimball entendiam que a Maçonaria seria uma forma corrompida de um rito puro do templo antigo. [1] Um autor mais tarde escreveu que a Maçonaria, como uma "instituição originada há muitos séculos, é apenas um sacerdócio corrompido, roubado dos Templos do Altíssimo." [2]

Early Church leaders believed that Freemasonry was an "apostate" form of the Endowment

  • Willard Richards (16 March 1842): “Masonry had its origin in the Priesthood. A hint to the wise is sufficient.” [5]
  • Heber C. Kimball (17 June 1842): “There is a similarity of priesthood in Masonry. Brother Joseph [Smith] says Masonry was taken from priesthood.” [6]
  • Benjamin F. Johnson (1843): Joseph Smith “told me Freemasonry, as at present, was the apostate endowments, as sectarian religion was the apostate religion.” [7]
  • Joseph Fielding (December 1843): The LDS temple ordinances are “the true origin of Masonry.” [8]
  • Saints in Salt Lake City (1849–50): “Masonry was originally of the church, and one of its favored institutions, to advance the members in their spiritual functions. It had become perverted from its designs.” [9]
  • Heber C. Kimball (9 November 1858): “The Masonry of today is received from the apostasy. . . . They have now and then a thing that is correct, but we have the real thing.” [10]
  • Church Authorities (1842–1873): “The Mormon leaders have always asserted that Free-Masonry was a . . . degenerate representation of the order of the true priesthood.” [11]
