The Stick: Aaron's staff that had budded.

Numbers 16-17

Symbol of God's redemption.

For us: Jesus is our High Priest (Hebrews 9:11)

 

The Stone: Stone tablets of the covenant.

For us: "If you love me, you will obey what I commanded." (John 14:15)

A Thought From God's Word:
Sing to the Lord a new song; sing to the Lord, all the earth. Sing to the Lord, praise his name; proclaim his salvation day after day. Declare his glory among the nations, his marvelous deeds among all peoples. For great is the Lord and most worthy of praise; he is to be feared above all gods. [Psalm 96:1-4]
