Some people associate King Solomon with the origins of both Illuminati and the freemasonry. I don't know the truth and am not the one saying that Solomon was an influential Grandmaster of the Illuminati or Freemasons.
When you want to build a temple, who will you approach to do the construction?
If you go to the slave, the sweat and tears and pain and cruelty shall desecrate the temple. Remember David could not construct the temple because his hands were bloody.
Would hired laborers do? Here we'd face high monitoring costs and inefficiencies.
That is, Solomon could only turn to 'free' Masons.
Thus Solomon went to people who were already in existence. And he himself was both free, and a Mason.
Christ was a carpenter. A carpenter is a Mason. And he was and is, free.
