Resh

Head · Chief · Highest

"The letter Resh is the head of a man — the chief, the highest position, the one at the top. Yahushua was rejected as the cornerstone by the very builders who should have recognized Him — and then Yahuah made Him the head over everything."

Concept — The Chief Cornerstone

Psalm 118 records a stone that the builders rejected becoming the chief cornerstone. Yahushua quoted that Psalm about Himself after the religious leaders challenged His authority in the temple courts. He was the stone they were looking at and refusing — the very one Yahuah had placed as the foundation of everything He was building. They rejected Him and handed Him to Rome. Yahuah raised Him and set Him as head over all things, above every name, in every age. The Resh they threw away became the Resh of the entire structure.

Psalm 118:22 "The stone which the builders rejected has become the chief cornerstone." — Applied directly to Yahushua in Matthew 21:42 and Acts 4:11.

Colossians 1:18 "He is the head of the body, the assembly; He is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, that in all things He may have the preeminence."

Ephesians 1:22 "He put all things under His feet, and gave Him to be head over all things to the assembly."
