Summary

There are two Emerald Tablets. They share a name. They share a color. Everything else about them is completely different — the origin, the author, the century, the verifiability. Most people who quote one are actually thinking of the other, and the confusion is over a hundred years old. In this episode I investigate both. One was translated by Isaac Newton in his own handwriting, the manuscript still preserved at Cambridge today. The other has a very different story behind it.
