Danville Lodge of Perfection
Description:
The Ineffable Degrees, from the Fourth to the Fourteenth inclusive, are conferred in a Lodge of Perfection. They are called "Ineffable" because they are concerned with the ineffable or unutterable Name of God and with man's eager quest for the True Name. In these eleven degrees, there is a profound unveiling of the character and purposes of God - that high and holy One, who inhabits eternity, but dwells with him also that is of a contrite and humble spirit.

Walter A. Stevens Council Princes of Jerusalem
Description:
The Fifteenth and Sixteenth Degrees of Scottish Rite Masonry are known as "Knight of the East or Sword" and "Prince of Jerusalem". These degrees sometimes referred to as the historical degrees, constitute an allegorical narrative presenting the story of a captive people who "wept beside the rivers of Babylon". When liberated they were consecrated to the task of building the second temple or rather of rebuilding the original temple of Solomon, which had been destroyed by marauding Assyrians.

George E. Burow Chapter of Rose Croix
Description:
The Seventeenth and Eighteenth Degrees, known as the Philosophical and Doctrinal Degrees of the Scottish Rite, are conferred in a Chapter of Rose Croix. They open a new development of Masonic teaching and are a distinct departure and advance from the symbolism and teaching of the Symbolic Lodge and of the preceding Scottish Rite Degrees. These deal with the first Temple and its supporting columns, and the attempt to restore and maintain the old worship in a second temple reared upon the ruins of the first. Neither endured.
