A Volume of the Sacred Law is always displayed in an open Lodge in those jurisdictions which require a belief in the Supreme Being.  In English-speaking countries, this is frequently the King James Version of the Bible or another standard translation [1].  Other books of faith such as the Quran, the Hebrew Bible - theTanakh etc., can also be displayed or available.

     Now you will always read and hear rebuffs that there is; no such thing as an exclusive Masonic Bible.  Okay, this is bit of a trick question, or misleading I should say, as of course there isn’t a “Masonic Bible”, as in a specifically written book of it’s own for a Masonic religion.  No, - what I mean and as do others when ‘we’ refer to the Freemasons having ‘their own bible’, is simply what the likes of Rabbi H. Geffen a 32nd Degree Freemason was pointing out, - that the Bible and the Kabbalah are deeply entwined with esoteric meaning and understanding to the initiated, and that ‘special’ bibles are indeed printed with the initiated Freemason in mind, as there are ones that are the equivalent of a complete religious encyclopaedia.  Some ‘Masonic’ editions are in a ‘bible likeness’ embossed on the outer cover with the words; Holy Bible, whilst inside and on the front cover is the square and compasses in gold overlay.  Obviously designed to obscure and deceive the inner meanings and interpretation of the Bible, it almost as if the person holding it doesn’t want to be seen linked to the Freemasons.    

     Many others have the Masonic insignia and logo’s on the outer covers, and where the Mason is guided by chapter and verse to landmarks of the Craft.  They have special Masonic features i.e.  Scottish Rite, Blue Lodge, York Rite and Consistory Pages; and include Progressive Steps of Freemasonry.  They have a Questions and Answers section, a Biblical Index to Freemasonry and old and New Testaments of the Holy Bible, King James Version. [2]

     In 1604, King James I of England authorised that a new translation of the Bible into English be started.  It was finished in 1611- just 85 years after the first translation of the New Testament into English appeared [Tyndale, 1526].  The Authorised Version, or King James Version, quickly became the standard for English-speaking Protestants.

     You will also be able to find a Dictionary and Concordance and some have as many as 50 Pages of Biblical index to Freemasonry which can include King Solomon’s Temple and or a review of the Eastern Star and features pages of colour reproductions of the John Wesley Kelchner Temple Illustrations, all with Tracing Board examples etc. Though more interestingly, there are pages with illustrations of Egyptian gods, and show; “Ra” as the creator, - so come of it, stop the denials, as these ‘additional’ pages are certainly not what the millions of main stream “Christian’s” are holding in their hands at Sunday mass!  

     They have pages to sign for visiting brothers, a page for EA etc. Lodge Officers, York Rite Record, etc. - So there you have it, despite time and time again when you regularly read or hear; there is “no Masonic Bible” exclusive to the Freemasons, then just show and read them what I have just confirmed, in fact tell them to Google; “Masonic Bibles for sale” and you’re get at 200,000 options to look at!  And here’s one - [3].  Even though the actual biblical text obviously hasn’t been altered, - but by having any Holy Bible that has in excess of 50 pages dedicated to the subject of Freemasonry, - is clearly why there is this notion as to the Freemasons having their “own bible”, when in fact it’s just a “personalised version” of the original bible, though most certainly not the kind the Gideons leave in hotel rooms or prisons, nor will your average ‘pie and liquor’, [cockney rhyme for Vicar] be handing to you at Sunday mass.

Great write up here. So much of your analysis is spot on. Masonic teachings very by lodge, and most all take a very eclectic approach to mysticism. At the same time, most do not explore the deeply esoteric. Instead they focus on the principles and rituals that contain the history of their craft. It can almost be said that the craft itself, is deified to the point of worship much in the same way Catholics center their mass around the sacraments.

Now, the deep, inner core of Masonry, has an entirely different approach to the circus entertainment and intrigue of the lesser degrees. It is these levels that are reflective of ancient traditions lost to antiquity, save the powerful societies such as the Masons that have closely guarded and preserved the ancient teachings and traditions. 

TMW, perhaps you would be interested in joining my group. You seem like someone who would appreciate the secrets from antiquity:
