“The stone which the builders refused is become the head stone of the corner.”
The stone that the builders rejected has become the chief cornerstone. This enigmatic verse speaks of something (perhaps the speaker, perhaps Israel, perhaps the messiah in Christian interpretation) rejected by authorities ('builders') but elevated to prominence ('chief cornerstone'). The image suggests reversal and vindication. This verse has been given extensive theological interpretation across traditions.
