NET © Notes |
1 tn On this term, see BDAG 972 s.v. συνθλάω. 2 tn Grk “on whomever it falls, it will crush him.” sn This proverb basically means that the stone crushes, without regard to whether it falls on someone or someone falls on it. On the stone as a messianic image, see Isa 28:16 and Dan 2:44-45. |
