Isaiah 54:11 (a) Our Lord JESUS is compared to this beautiful stone because of His holy and heavenly character, and as the foundation of GOD's Church. It is also a picture of the heavenly character of the nation of Israel as they will appear when GOD finishes His training of them.

Ezekiel 1:26 (a) This is a bright blue stone which is typical of the heavenly and holy character of our Lord. (See also Song of Solomon 5:14; Ezekiel 10:1; Revelation 21:19).
