The story of King Solomon has fascinated spiritual and religious
writers for millennia - this book advances a theory that Solomon
was infact a Magi who created many of the rituals, spells and
symbols important to occultists. Although the idea that Solomon
carried some sort of mystical powers is not new, this book purports
to be written in the ancient king of the Jews' own hand. The
magical symbols and diagrams which are situated alongside the
various rituals and incantations are intricate, containing
pentacles and other shapes. Towards the end of the book a large
table is appended, detailing a selection of mystical alphabets and
their English. For his investigation, Mathers delved deep into the
archives of the British Museum, unearthing an old French manuscript
of the text which he duly translated into English. He also
replicated the diagrams and symbols; these efforts resulted in this
modern English version of the old Solomon manuscripts, and an
increase in interest toward writings hitherto obscure.
