The intention of the Jerusalem Temple was to bring Humanity together in worship of the Most High and to be a resting place for the Ark of the Covenant. King Salomon, aided by his friend King Hiram of Tyre and Master Architect, Hiram Abiff (the son of a widow of Naphtali), form a Holy Triarchy to ensure that the greatest temple built is a suitable dwelling place for God. In undertaking this task, each is entrusted with a component of the name of the Most High that can only be uttered when the three unite upon the Temple's completion. Queen Balkis of Sheba, seeking wisdom and the secrets of a Master Mason, contrives the Chief Architect's murder, so ensuring the ineffable name of the Most High is lost to Mankind. The Widow's Son and the Lost Word relates an enduring tale of eternal hope, resurrected from the dust of death and despair.

"Ramesh Gupta's The Widow's Son and the Lost Word is an intellectual feat of storytelling. Inspired by his admiration of the Scottish Masonic third degree, Gupta masterfully retells familiar Old Testament stories traced to the books of Joshua, Judges, Samuel, and Kings in ways that transfix the reader not to put down the book. . . . This book is a must-read not only for those fascinated by Bible stories but also for all who love poetry."
--Yonah H. Matemba, University of the West of Scotland

"If you love poetry, mystique, biblical stories, history, and all of these with some freemasonry thrown in for good measure, then just like me, you will love this book. Beautifully crafted and thought-provoking. You can't ask for a better read."
--Rick Wakeman, CBE, composer and performer

Ramesh Gupta was born in India but has lived almost all his life in Scotland. He has a love of music, poetry, history, and learning. He is the author of a number of epic and traditional poems, short stories, and a “poetrical,” a form of stage entertainment whose narrative is driven as much by poetry as spoken prose.
