Mark 12:10 Meaning and Commentary

Mark 12:10

And have ye not read this Scripture?
&c.] In ( Psalms 118:22 Psalms 118:23 ) these are the words of Christ directed to the above persons, who were, many of them, teachers of the people, and therefore ought to have read the scriptures, and have taken notice of, and considered more especially such as respected the Messiah, as this passage did, and was very appropriate to the case in the parable Christ had respect unto:

the stone which the builders rejected, is become the head of the
corner:
by "the stone" is meant the same with the son and heir in the parable, even himself, the true Messiah; and by "the builders", the chief priests, Scribes, and elders, the same with the husbandmen, whose rejection of the stone, or of the Messiah, is signified by their seizing him, casting him out of the vineyard, and killing him; and yet notwithstanding all this, according to this Scripture, he was to be, and now is become, the head of the corner, exalted above angels and men, at the right hand of God; (See Gill on Matthew 21:42).

Mark 12:10 In-Context

8 They grabbed him, killed him, and threw him out of the vineyard.

9 "So what will the owner of the vineyard do? He will come and destroy those tenants and give the vineyard to others.

10 Haven't you read this scripture, The stone that the builders rejected has become the cornerstone.

11 The Lord has done this, and it's amazing in our eyes?"

12 They wanted to arrest Jesus because they knew that he had told the parable against them. But they were afraid of the crowd, so they left him and went away.
