Therefore, this is what the Sovereign Lord says: “Look! I am placing a foundation stone in Jerusalem, a firm and tested stone. It is a precious cornerstone that is safe to build on. Whoever believes need never be shaken. - Isaiah 28:16
Jesus is this cornerstone, Matthew 21:42, Psalm 118:22, Ephesians 2:20
Jesus explains it in Luke 20:17, It appears Luke 20 and Isaiah 28 are linked in theme.
Peter filled with the Holy Spirit explains it in Acts 4:11 and 1 Peter 2:4-7
I will test you with the measuring line of justice and the plumb line of righteousness. Since your refuge is made of lies, a hailstorm will knock it down. Since it is made of deception, a flood will sweep it away. - Isaiah 28:17
When you take up your Bible to read or teach, remind yourself that true and faithful learning from God is not merely “line upon line” or “precept upon precept” — those phrases describe the hollow learning of a people under judgment. True learning is plowing the rows, sowing the seeds, and bringing in the harvest as one whose ears have been opened to truly hear the instruction of the Lord. - Precept Upon Precept A Common (and Serious) Problem in Bible Study
...
Does a farmer always plow and never sow?
Is he forever cultivating the soil and never planting? ...
The farmer knows just what to do,
for God has given him understanding...
The Lord of Heaven’s Armies is a wonderful teacher,
and he gives the farmer great wisdom. (Isaiah 28:23-29)
