More thoughts on May 5, 2005.   I was thinking about Zecharia 4:7
"and he shall bring forth the headstone thereof with shoutings, crying, Grace, grace unto it."  and here we see two mentions of the word "grace",,,can we find another?
Well,  there is Isaiah 19:19
"In that day shall there be an altar to the LORD in the midst of the land of Egypt, and a pillar at the border thereof to the LORD."

We know this as the great pyramid of Giza, which is a study unto itself as being a "witness" of stones, portraying within itself, the layout of the dates of man's salvation story.    It is interesting that this pyramid, which has 144,000 casing stones on the outside, and we are the "living stones" which are built upon the foundations of the prophets and apostles, that this pyramid does not have to this day the top finishing stone, or capstone, because the builders rejected it.
      Now, here is where the third "grace" comes in......this capstone, would have FIVE corners, being the "head" of the corner, the top capstone being formed in like form to the larger pyramid itself, only the very top stone as one unit.
      The top stone, therefore, of a pyramid, has five corners.
So, when Zecharia says, "grace, grace unto it," and is referring to "the headstone" thereof, with shoutings, being placed on this completed ediface, then we have in effect in this verse:
      grace, grace, "grace" being the final and third grace to the verse.   And this same stone is the one which came down and brought down the image of the gentile nations in Nebucadnezzer's dream.
      Cool.     YSIC        Arlene
