The Seal of Melchizedek and the Design of the San Diego Temple | Meridian Magazine

 This 8-point star, perhaps best known as the Seal of Melchizedek, is a
symbol of Christ. President Gordon B. Hinckley was sufficiently
impressed with the symbol that he asked it be added to the Salt Lake
City Temple.


How, you may ask, did this ancient symbol suddenly capture such
modern attention? Seemingly by coincidence, if you believe in that. Our
story begins with the design of the San Diego Temple by an architectural
team completely unaware of any particular significance of the symbol.
Then, we will take a look at the history, meanings, and mysteries of
this ancient symbol uncovered by subsequent research.
