Jesus’ body is placed in a tomb and a “great stone” rolled in front of it. Can He move the stone?
That is to say: Is He truly a greater Jacob, who set up a stone where angels descended (Genesis 28:18), who rolled away a large stone to open a well for Rachel the shepherdess (Genesis 29:10)?
That is to say: Is He truly able to tear down temples, leaving not one stone on another? Is He greater than Solomon, who can cut and form stones for a new temple?
Easter answers Yes: This Jesus, the rock that the builders rejected, can move whatever stones He likes.
