“From Judah will come the cornerstone, the tent peg, the bow for battle, and all the rulers.
What I mean is, our Lord came from the tribe of Judah, and Moses never mentioned priests coming from that tribe.
You are coming to Christ, who is the living cornerstone of God’s temple. He was rejected by people, but he was chosen by God for great honor.
As the Scriptures say, “I am placing a cornerstone in Jerusalem, chosen for great honor, and anyone who trusts in Him will never be disgraced.” Yes, you who trust Him recognize the honor God has given Him.
But for those who reject Him, “The stone that the builders rejected has now become the cornerstone.” And, “He is the stone that makes people stumble, the rock that makes them fall.”
They stumble because they do not obey God’s word, and so they meet the fate that was planned for them.”
{Zechariah 10:4; Hebrews 7:14; 1 Peter 2:4, 6-8}
