Gospel of Thomas - Chapter 068
From Sensus Plenior
- (66) Jesus said, "Show me the stone which the builders have rejected. That one is the cornerstone."
The word אבן stone consists of אב father and בן son.
There is a bigger mystery. When Joseph had his dream (Ge 37:9 ), there were eleven stars which bowed down to him. He was the twelfth son. The twelve disciples were never meant to be counted as twelve in the mystery. Jesus was the twelfth son. Of the twelve stones on the breastplate of the priest, Jesus was the cornerstone. He was rejected by his brethren just as Joseph was.
The word בנא build is the word בנ son followed by the aleph א representing separation. The builders were the sons who were separated from God. They rejected Christ.
