A #GoldenTriangle with Hebrew letters for God & the #DeltaEnoch are carved into the centre of the semi-dome that covers the #Apse. It’s said, the #KnightsTemplar found the symbol in the #TempleOfSolomon & brought it to Scotland. Architect #JamesGibbs & his patron #JohnErskine used the symbol inside #StMaryLeStrand to show its #Jacobite politics and alignment with the Templars.
