Who was jachin

Who was Jachin? Jachin is one of the two pillars that stood at the entrance of King Solomon's Temple, the other being Boaz. In Masonic tradition, Jachin is associated with the concept of establishment, as its name in Hebrew (יָכִין) translates to 'He shall establish.' It is said to represent strength and stability, complementing Boaz, which signifies strength. Together, they symbolize the foundation upon which the Temple was built, and they are often interpreted as embodying the principles of strength and establishment in the moral and ethical teachings of Freemasonry.

In the context of Masonic teachings, Jachin is positioned on the right side and is associated with the active principle, while Boaz represents the passive principle. This duality reflects broader themes in Masonic philosophy, where Jachin and Boaz are seen as symbols of balance and harmony in the universe.
