The Stone
Rock as foundation, as witness, as the thing the builders refused — every tradition makes stone the silent counsel against forgetfulness.
Judaism
"And Jacob rose up early in the morning, and took the stone that he had put for his pillows, and set it up for a pillar..."
"...Behold, this stone shall be a witness unto us; for it hath heard all the words of the LORD which he spake unto us..."
"The stone which the builders refused is become the head stone of the corner."
