Some cornerstones include time capsules from, or engravings commemorating the time a particular building was built. The writer of the Book of Ephesians makes clear that Jesus is the cornerstone, of a faith rather than a building, referred to in the Old Testament Ephesians 2:20.
The origins of this tradition are vague but its presence in Judeo-Christian countries can be associated with one quotation from the Old Testament ( Psalm 118:22) cited six times in the New Testament ( Matthew 21:42, Mark 12:10, Luke 20:17, Acts 4:11, Ephesians 2:20 and 1 Peter 2:7)and Isaiah 28:16quoted by the writer of the Book of 1st Peter 1 Peter. The rite of laying a cornerstone is an important cultural component of eastern architecture and metaphorically in sacred architecture generally. Over time a cornerstone became a ceremonial masonry stone, or replica, set in a prominent location on the outside of a building, with an inscription on the stone indicating the construction dates of the building and the names of architect, builder and other significant individuals. The cornerstone (or foundation stone) concept is derived from the first stone set in the construction of a masonry foundation, important since all other stones will be set in reference to this stone, thus determining the position of the entire structure.
