Verse 18
Jesus next referred to other Old Testament passages that also referred to a stone (Daniel 2:34; Daniel 2:44-45; cf. Isaiah 8:14-15). They taught that a capstone would be God’s agent of judgment. Those who opposed it would only destroy themselves, and it would crush those on whom it fell. The stone in Daniel 2 represents a kingdom. Likewise Jesus as the King of the kingdom of God would serve as God’s agent of judgment in the future. However even now Jesus was the stone that would bring judgment on God’s enemies.
