In ancient construction, the cornerstone was the principal stone, placed at the corner of a building to guide the builders and ensure the structure's stability. This concept is richly woven into the fabric of Scripture, both in the Old and New Testaments, and is used metaphorically to describe Christ and His role in the Church.<br><br><b>Old Testament References</b><br><br>In the Old Testament, the cornerstone is often associated with strength and prominence. <a href="/isaiah/28-16.htm">Isaiah 28:16</a> declares, "So this is what the Lord GOD says: 'See, I lay a stone in Zion, a tested stone, a precious cornerstone, a sure foundation; the one who believes will never be shaken.'" This passage highlights the cornerstone as a symbol of security and trustworthiness, pointing to the coming Messiah who would be the foundation of God's redemptive plan.<br><br><a href="/psalms/118-22.htm">Psalm 118:22</a> also speaks of the cornerstone: "The stone the builders rejected has become the cornerstone." This verse is prophetic, foretelling the rejection of Christ by the religious leaders of His time, yet His ultimate exaltation as the foundation of salvation.<br><br><b>New Testament Fulfillment</b><br><br>The New Testament writers frequently reference the cornerstone imagery to affirm Jesus Christ as the fulfillment of these Old Testament prophecies. In <a href="/matthew/21-42.htm">Matthew 21:42</a> , Jesus Himself cites <a href="/psalms/118-22.htm">Psalm 118:22</a>, saying, "Have you never read in the Scriptures: 'The stone the builders rejected has become the cornerstone. This is from the Lord, and it is marvelous in our eyes'?" Here, Jesus identifies Himself as the cornerstone, rejected by the leaders but chosen by God as the foundation of His Church.<br><br>The Apostle Peter reiterates this in <a href="/acts/4-11.htm">Acts 4:11</a> , proclaiming, "This Jesus is 'the stone you builders rejected, which has become the cornerstone.'" Peter emphasizes that salvation is found in no one else, underscoring the centrality of Christ as the cornerstone of faith.<br><br>Furthermore, in <a href="/ephesians/2-19.htm">Ephesians 2:19-20</a> , Paul writes, "Therefore you are no longer strangers and foreigners, but fellow citizens with the saints and members of God's household, built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, with Christ Jesus Himself as the cornerstone." This passage illustrates the unity and cohesion of the Church, built upon the teachings of the apostles and prophets, with Christ as the essential cornerstone that holds the entire structure together.<br><br><b>Theological Significance</b><br><br>Theologically, the cornerstone represents Christ's preeminence and His role as the foundation of the Church. It signifies His authority, reliability, and the unity He brings to believers. As the cornerstone, Christ is the measure by which all other stones (believers) are aligned, ensuring the integrity and strength of the spiritual edifice.<br><br>The rejection of the cornerstone by the builders serves as a warning against unbelief and the consequences of rejecting God's chosen foundation. Conversely, for those who believe, the cornerstone is a source of hope and assurance, promising stability and eternal security in Christ.<br><br>In summary, the biblical concept of the cornerstone encapsulates the essence of Christ's mission and His foundational role in the life of the believer and the Church. It is a powerful reminder of God's sovereign plan and the centrality of Christ in all things.<a name="isb" id="isb"></a><div class="vheading2">International Standard Bible Encyclopedia</div><span class="encheading">CORNER-STONE</span><p>kor'-ner ston (pinnah, zawith; akrogoniaios): Part of the public or imposing buildings, to which importance has been attached in all ages and in many nations, both on account of its actual service and its figurative meaning. Ordinarily its use in the Bible is figurative, or symbolical. No doubt the original meaning was some important stone, which was laid at the foundation of a building.<br><br>(1) With the Canaanites, who preceded Israel in the possession of Palestine, corner-stone laying seems to have been a most sacred and impressive ceremonial. Under this important stone of temples, or other great structures, bodies of children or older persons would be laid, consecrating the building by such human sacrifice (see FORTIFICATION, II, 1). This was one of many hideous rites and practices which Israel was to extirpate. It may throw light on the curse pronounced upon the rebuilding of Jericho (<a href="/joshua/6-26.htm">Joshua 6:26</a>; see PEFS, January, 1904, July, 1908).<br><br>See <a href="../c/canaan.htm">CANAAN</a>.<br><br>(2) Old Testament references.-The Hebrew word pinnah, "corner," is found or implied in every occurrence of this idea. Derived from a root signifying "to turn," it means "turning," and therefore "edge" or "corner." Ordinarily it is used with 'ebhen, "stone" (<a href="/psalms/118-22.htm">Psalm 118:22</a>); or it may occur alone, having acquired for itself through frequent use the whole technical phrase-idea (<a href="/zechariah/10-4.htm">Zechariah 10:4</a> the King James Version).<br><br>Figurative Uses:<br><br>While all the passages indicate the stone at the corner, there appear to be two conceptions:<br><br>(a) the foundation-stone upon which the structure rested (<a href="/job/38-6.htm">Job 38:6</a> <a href="/isaiah/28-16.htm">Isaiah 28:16</a> <a href="/jeremiah/51-26.htm">Jeremiah 51:26</a>); or<br><br>(b) the topmost or cap-stone, which linked the last tier together (<a href="/psalms/118-22.htm">Psalm 118:22</a> <a href="/zechariah/4-7.htm">Zechariah 4:7</a>); in both cases it is an important or key-stone, and figurative of the Messiah, who is "the First and the Last."<br><br>In <a href="/job/38-6.htm">Job 38:6</a> it beautifully expresses in figures the stability of the earth, which Yahweh created. In <a href="/zechariah/10-4.htm">Zechariah 10:4</a> the leader or ruler in the Messianic age is represented by the corner-stone. The ancient tradition of the one missing stone, when the temple was in building, is reflected in or has been suggested by <a href="/psalms/118-22.htm">Psalm 118:22</a> (Midrash quoted by Pusey under <a href="/zechariah/4-7.htm">Zechariah 4:7</a>). It is probable that we should read in <a href="/psalms/144-12.htm">Psalm 144:12</a> not "corner-stones," but "corner-pillars," or supports (compare Greek Caryatides) from a different Hebrew word, zawith, Brown, Driver, and Briggs, Hebrew and English Lexicon of the Old Testament, under the word<br><br>(3) New Testament passages.- <a href="/psalms/118-22.htm">Psalm 118:22</a> is quoted and interpreted as fulfilled in Jesus Christ in a number of passages: <a href="/matthew/21-42.htm">Matthew 21:42</a> <a href="/mark/12-10.htm">Mark 12:10</a> <a href="/luke/20-17.htm">Luke 20:17</a> <a href="/acts/4-11.htm">Acts 4:11</a> and <a href="/1_peter/2-7.htm">1 Peter 2:7</a>; it is also the evident basis for <a href="/ephesians/2-20.htm">Ephesians 2:20</a>. <a href="/isaiah/28-16.htm">Isaiah 28:16</a> is quoted twice in the New Testament: <a href="/romans/9-33.htm">Romans 9:33</a>, from Septuagint combined with the words of <a href="/isaiah/8-14.htm">Isaiah 8:14</a>, and in <a href="/1_peter/2-6.htm">1 Peter 2:6</a>, which is quoted with some variation from Septuagint.
