The imagery of a rock is used extensively throughout the Scriptures to convey the nature and attributes of God, the foundation of faith, and the steadfastness of His promises. God as the Rock The metaphor of God as a rock is prevalent in the Old Testament, emphasizing His unchanging nature and reliability. In <a href="/deuteronomy/32-4.htm">Deuteronomy 32:4</a>, Moses declares, "He is the Rock; His work is perfect; all His ways are just. A God of faithfulness without injustice, righteous and upright is He." This passage highlights God's perfection and justice, portraying Him as a dependable refuge for His people. Similarly, in <a href="/2_samuel/22-2.htm">2 Samuel 22:2-3</a>, David sings, "The LORD is my rock, my fortress, and my deliverer. My God is my rock, in whom I take refuge, my shield, and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold and my refuge, my Savior—You save me from violence." Here, the rock symbolizes God's protection and deliverance, underscoring His role as a sanctuary in times of trouble. Christ as the Rock In the New Testament, the imagery of the rock is also applied to Jesus Christ. In <a href="/matthew/16-18.htm">Matthew 16:18</a>, Jesus tells Peter, "And I tell you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build My church, and the gates of Hades will not prevail against it." While interpretations vary, many understand this "rock" to refer to the confession of faith in Jesus as the Messiah, upon which the Church is established. Furthermore, in <a href="/1_corinthians/10-4.htm">1 Corinthians 10:4</a>, Paul refers to Christ as the spiritual rock that accompanied the Israelites: "And all drank the same spiritual drink. For they drank from the spiritual rock that followed them, and that rock was Christ." This passage connects Christ to the sustaining presence and provision of God during the Israelites' wilderness journey. Rock as a Symbol of Faith and Obedience The rock also serves as a metaphor for the foundation of faith and obedience to God's word. In the parable of the wise and foolish builders, Jesus contrasts those who hear His words and act on them with those who do not. In <a href="/matthew/7-24.htm">Matthew 7:24-25</a>, He states, "Therefore everyone who hears these words of Mine and acts on them is like a wise man who built his house on the rock. The rain fell, the torrents raged, and the winds blew and beat against that house, yet it did not fall, because its foundation was on the rock." This illustrates the security and resilience found in a life grounded in Christ's teachings. Rock as a Symbol of Judgment Conversely, the rock can also symbolize judgment. In <a href="/daniel/2-34.htm">Daniel 2:34-35</a>, a rock "cut out, but not by human hands" strikes the statue in Nebuchadnezzar's dream, symbolizing the establishment of God's eternal kingdom that will crush all earthly kingdoms. This imagery conveys the ultimate authority and power of God's dominion. Conclusion Throughout the Bible, the rock serves as a powerful symbol of God's nature, the foundation of faith, and the certainty of His promises. Whether representing divine protection, the cornerstone of the Church, or the basis of a life built on obedience, the rock remains a profound and enduring image in biblical theology.<a name="eas" id="eas"></a><div class="vheading2">Easton's Bible Dictionary</div>(Hebrews tsur), employed as a symbol of God in the Old Testament (<a href="/1_samuel/2-2.htm">1 Samuel 2:2</a>; <a href="/2_samuel/22-3.htm">2 Samuel 22:3</a>; <a href="/isaiah/17-10.htm">Isaiah 17:10</a>; <a href="/psalms/28-1.htm">Psalm 28:1</a>; <a href="/psalms/31-2.htm">31:2</a>, 3; <a href="/psalms/89-26.htm">89:26</a>; <a href="/psalms/95-1.htm">95:1</a>); also in the New Testament (<a href="/matthew/16-18.htm">Matthew 16:18</a>; <a href="/romans/9-33.htm">Romans 9:33</a>; <a href="/1_corinthians/10-4.htm">1 Corinthians 10:4</a>).

Names: Tsur and cela` are the words most often found, and there is no well-defined distinction between them. They are frequently coupled together in the parallelism which is characteristic of the Hebrew writers: e.g. "Be thou to me a strong rock (tsur), A house of defense to save me. For thou art my rock (tsela) and my fortress" (<a href="/psalms/31-2.htm">Psalm 31:2, 3</a>). "He clave rocks (tsur) in the wilderness, And gave them drink abundantly as out of the depths. He brought streams also out of the rock (sela), And caused waters to run down like rivers" (<a href="/psalms/78-15.htm">Psalm 78:15, 16</a>). It is plain here that the two words are used for the sake of variety, without any clear difference of meaning. Even challamish (translated "flint") is used in the same way with tsur in <a href="/psalms/114-8.htm">Psalm 114:8</a>: "Who turned the rock (tsur) into a pool of water; The flint (callamish) into a fountain of waters." 2. Figurative: (1) Some of the most striking and beautiful imagery of the Bible is based upon the rocks. They are a symbol of God: "Yahweh is my rock, and my fortress" (<a href="/2_samuel/22-2.htm">2 Samuel 22:2</a> <a href="/psalms/18-2.htm">Psalm 18:2</a>; <a href="/psalms/71-3.htm">Psalm 71:3</a>); "God, the rock of my salvation" (<a href="/2_samuel/22-47.htm">2 Samuel 22:47</a>; compare <a href="/psalms/62-2.htm">Psalm 62:2, 7</a>; <a href="/psalms/89-26.htm">Psalm 89:26</a>); "my God the rock of my refuge" (<a href="/psalms/94-22.htm">Psalm 94:22</a>); "the rock of thy strength" (<a href="/isaiah/17-10.htm">Isaiah 17:10</a>); "Lead me to the rock that is higher than I" (<a href="/psalms/61-2.htm">Psalm 61:2</a>); repeatedly in the song of Moses (<a href="/deuteronomy/32-3.htm">Deuteronomy 32:3, 4, 18, 30, 31</a>; compare <a href="/2_samuel/22-32.htm">2 Samuel 22:32</a>). Paul applies the rock smitten in the wilderness (<a href="/exodus/17-6.htm">Exodus 17:6</a> <a href="/numbers/20-11.htm">Numbers 20:11</a>) to Christ as the source of living water for spiritual refreshment (<a href="/1_corinthians/10-4.htm">1 Corinthians 10:4</a>). (2) The rocks are a refuge, both figuratively and literally (<a href="/jeremiah/48-28.htm">Jeremiah 48:28</a> <a href="/songs/2-14.htm">Songs 2:14</a>); "The rocks are a refuge for the conies" (<a href="/psalms/104-18.htm">Psalm 104:18</a>). Many a traveler in Palestine has felt the refreshment of "the shade of a great rock in a weary land" (<a href="/isaiah/32-2.htm">Isaiah 32:2</a>). A very different idea is expressed in <a href="/isaiah/8-14.htm">Isaiah 8:14</a>, "And he shall be for a sanctuary; but for a stone of stumbling and for a rock of offense" (compare <a href="/romans/9-33.htm">Romans 9:33</a> <a href="/1_peter/2-8.htm">1 Peter 2:8</a>). (3) The rock is a symbol of hardness (<a href="/jeremiah/5-3.htm">Jeremiah 5:3</a>; compare <a href="/isaiah/50-7.htm">Isaiah 50:7</a>). Therefore, the breaking of the rock exemplifies the power of God (<a href="/jeremiah/23-29.htm">Jeremiah 23:29</a>; compare <a href="/1_kings/19-11.htm">1 Kings 19:11</a>). The rock is also a symbol of that which endures, "Oh that they.... were graven in the rock for ever!" (<a href="/job/19-23.htm">Job 19:23, 24</a>). A rock was an appropriate place for offering a sacrifice (<a href="/judges/6-20.htm">Judges 6:20</a>; <a href="/judges/13-19.htm">Judges 13:19</a>). The central feature of the Mosque of `Umar in Jerusalem is Qubbat-uc-Cakhrat, the "dome of the rock." The rock or cakhrat under the dome is thought to be the site of Solomon's altar of burnt offering, and further is thought to be the site of the threshing-floor of Araunah the Jebusite which David purchased to build an altar to Yahweh. 3. Kinds of Rock: (1) The principal rock of Palestine and Syria is limestone of which there are many varieties, differing in color, texture, hardness and degrees of impurity, some of the limestone having considerable admixtures of clay or sand. Some of the harder kinds are very dense and break with a conchoidal fracture similar to the fracture of flint. In rocks which have for ages been exposed to atmospheric agencies, erosion has produced striking and highly picturesque forms. Nodules and layers of flint are of frequent occurrence in the limestone. (2) Limestone is the only rock of Western Palestine, with the exception of some local outpourings of basaltic rock and with the further exception of a light-brown, porous, partly calcareous sandstone, which is found at intervals along the coast. This last is a superficial deposit of Quaternary or recent age, and is of aeolian origin. That is, it consists of dune sands which have solidified under the influence of atmospheric agencies. This is very exceptional, nearly all stratified rocks having originated as beds of sand or mud in the bottom of the sea. (3) In Sinai, Edom, Moab, Lebanon and Anti-Lebanon is found the Nubian sandstone, a silicious sandstone which, at least in the North, is of middle or lower Cretaceous age. In the South, the lower strata of this formation seem to be paleozoic. Most of it is not sufficiently coherent to make good building stone, though some of its strata are very firm and are even used for millstones. In some places it is so incoherent or friable that it is easily dug with the pick, the grains falling apart and forming sand that can be used in mortar. In color the Nubian sandstone is on the whole dark reddish brown, but locally it shows great variation, from white through yellow and red to black. In places it also has tints of blue. The celebrated rock tombs and temples of Petra are carved in this stone. (4) Extensive areas of the northern part of Eastern Palestine are covered with igneous rock. In the Jaulan Southeast of Mt. Hermon, this has been for ages exposed to the atmosphere and has formed superficially a rich dark soil. Further Southeast is the Leja' (Arabic "refuge"), a wild tract covered with a deposit of lava which is geologically recent, and which, while probably earlier than man, is still but little affected by the atmosphere. It is with difficulty traversed and frequently furnishes an asylum to outlaws. See <a href="../c/crag.htm">CRAG</a>; <a href="../f/flint.htm">FLINT</a>; GEOLOGY OF PALESTINE; LIME. Alfred Ely DayROCK OF AGESSee <a href="../a/ages.htm">AGES, ROCK OF</a>; <a href="../i/isaiah.htm">ISAIAH, VII</a>.SPIRITUAL ROCK(pneumatike petra): Having a spiritual significance: supernatural, manifesting the power of the Divine Spirit; allegorically applied to Christ as fulfilling the type in the smitten rock in the desert, from which water miraculously burst forth to nourish the Israelites. A tradition current among the Jews affirms that this rock followed the people in their journeyings and gave forth a living stream for their supply. Paul made this ever-flowing rock a beautiful and accurate symbol of Christ: "The rock was Christ" (<a href="/1_corinthians/10-4.htm">1 Corinthians 10:4</a>). Without the characterizing word "spiritual," this figurative term, with the same significance, is common to the Scriptures; applied (1) to Yahweh, God: "Rock of his salvation," "their rock is not as our Rock" (<a href="/deuteronomy/32-15.htm">Deuteronomy 32:15, 31</a>); "Yahweh is my rock" (<a href="/psalms/18-2.htm">Psalm 18:2</a>; compare <a href="/isaiah/26-4.htm">Isaiah 26:4</a>; <a href="/isaiah/32-2.htm">Isaiah 32:2</a> <a href="/1_samuel/2-2.htm">1 Samuel 2:2</a> <a href="/2_samuel/22-2.htm">2 Samuel 22:2</a>); (2) to the foundation-stone of Christian confession and testimony (<a href="/matthew/16-18.htm">Matthew 16:18</a>; compare <a href="/ephesians/2-20.htm">Ephesians 2:20</a> <a href="/1_corinthians/3-11.htm">1 Corinthians 3:11</a> <a href="/1_peter/2-6.htm">1 Peter 2:6-8</a>), and thus to Christ Himself; (3) in Christian hymnology to Jesus crucified and spear-pierced: "Rock of ages, cleft for me."
