Queen Elizabeth is from
the line of Judah and King David.
Tracing her in Wikipedia she is from the royalty of Germany, Scotland and the
Picts. Our Father in Heaven
did promise in Genesis 49:10 that the scepter would not depart from the line of
Judah.
There has been an established
tradition to have the coronation stone present at the coronation
ceremonies. This stone was originally Jacob’s
pillow mentioned in Genesis 28:10-22.
The information reflected
below shows how the scepter has not departed from Judah and the history of the
coronation stone.
Bethel - The Lia Fail - Stone of Destiny - Jacob's Pillar
The Royal Scepter
Genesis 49:10 The
scepter will not depart from Judah,
Nor the ruler's staff from between his feet, Until he comes to whom it belongs. 2 Samuel 7: 16 And thine house and thy kingdom shall be established for ever before thee: thy throne
shall be established for ever. 17 According to all these words, and
according to all this vision, so did Nathan speak unto David. As long as there is day and night, a descendant of David will be on the
throne.
Jeremiah 33:19 The word of the Lord came to Jeremiah: 20 "Thus says the Lord:
If you can break my covenant with the day and my covenant with the night, so
that day and night will not come at their appointed time, 21 then also my
covenant with David my servant may be broken, so that he shall not have a son
to reign on his throne, and my covenant with the Levitical priests my ministers. 22 As the host of heaven cannot be numbered and the sands
of the sea cannot be measured, so I will multiply the offspring of David my
servant, and the Levitical priests who minister to me."
Jacob’s Pillow – The Stone of Scone, Coronation Stone
From Wikipedia: The
Stone of Scone (/ˈskuːn/; Scottish Gaelic: An Lia
Fàil, Scots: Stane
o Scone), also known as the Stone of Destiny and often referred to in England as The Coronation Stone, is an oblong
block of red sandstone, used
for centuries in the coronation of the monarchs
of Scotland and later the monarchs
of England, Great
Britain, and the United Kingdom.
Historically, the artifact was kept at the now-ruined Scone Abbey in Scone, near Perth, Scotland. It is
also known as Jacob's Pillow Stone and the Tanist Stone, and in Scottish
Gaelic clach-na-cinneamhain. Its
size is about 26 inches (660 mm) by 16.75 inches (425 mm) by 10.5
inches (270 mm) and its weight is approximately 336 pounds (152 kg).
The top bears chisel-marks. At each end of the stone is an iron ring,
apparently intended to make transport easier. The Stone of Scone was last used in 1953 for the coronation of Elizabeth II of the United Kingdom.
In the monastery of Scone, in the church of God, near to the high altar, is kept a large stone, hollowed out as a round chair,
on which their kings were placed for their ordination, according to custom.
Various theories and legends exist about the stone's history
prior to its residence at Scone:
- Legends hold that this stone was the
coronation stone of the early Dál Riata Gaels, which they brought with them from Ireland when settling Scotland.
- The more historically supported story is of Fergus, son of Erc. As the first King of the Scots in Scotland, he is recorded to have brought the
stone (and some claim the coronation chair as well, though this is
unlikely) from Ireland to Argyll, and was crowned in it
- In either case, these legends present a
transport from Ireland and connection to the stone Lia Fáil, the coronation stone of the kings
of Tara. As referenced above, the Scottish Gaelic, clach-na-cinneamhain, clach Sgàin, and Lia(th) Fàil[1]
lends strong etymological support.
- Legends place the
origins in Biblical times and consider the stone to be the Stone of Jacob taken by Jacob while in Haran.[1] (Genesis 28:10-22).
- According to Hector Boece, the Stone was first kept in the
west of Scotland at the lost city of Evonium. Founded by Evenus, or Ewin, Evonium and its founder
have been tentatively identified as Irvine,
Ayrshire, a
medieval power centre on the west coast of Scotland, and with Dunstaffnage, in Argyll.
In 1296 the Stone was captured by Edward I as spoils of war and taken to Westminster Abbey, where it was fitted into a wooden chair, known as King Edward's Chair, on which most subsequent English sovereigns have
been crowned. Doubtless by this he intended to symbolise his claim to be
"Lord Paramount" of
Scotland with right to
oversee its King.
The Stone of Scone (Jacob's pillow) in the Coronation Chair at Westminister
Some doubt exists over the stone
captured by Edward I. The Westminster Stone theory posits that the monks at Scone Palace hid the real stone in the River Tay or buried it on Dunsinane Hill, and that the English troops were fooled
into taking a substitute. Some proponents of the theory claim that historic
descriptions of the stone do not match the present stone.[1] If the monks did hide the stone, they hid it well; no
other stone fitting its description has ever been found.
Jacob anoints the stone, he had used for a pillow,
with oil.
Genesis 28:18
So early in the morning Jacob took the stone that he had put under his head
and set it up for a pillar and poured oil on the top of it. 19 He called the name of that place Bethel, but the name of the city was Luz at
the first. 20 Then Jacob made a vow, saying, "If God will
be with me and will keep me in this way that I go, and will give me bread to
eat and clothing to wear, 21 so that I come again to my father's house in
peace, then the Lord shall be my God, 22 and this stone, which I have set up for a
pillar, shall be God's house. And of all that you give me I will give a
full tenth to you."
Some say it was the same stone or rock Moses used to make water:
Exodus 17:3 And the Lord said unto Moses, Go on before the people, and
take with thee of the elders of Israel; and thy rod, wherewith thou
smotest the river, take in thine hand, and go. 6 Behold, I will stand before
thee there upon the rock in Horeb;
and thou shalt smite the rock, and
there shall come water out of it, that the people may drink. And Moses did so
in the sight of the elders of Israel.
It was a spiritual stone:
1
Corth 10:1 Moreover, brethren, I would not that ye should be ignorant, how that
all our fathers were under the cloud, and all passed through the sea; 2 And
were all baptized unto
Moses in
the cloud and in the sea; 3 And did all eat the same spiritual meat; 4 And did all drink the same spiritual drink:
for they drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them: and that Rock was
Christ. 5 But with many of them God was
not well pleased:for they were overthrown in the wilderness.
The tradition of the King’s coronation is reflected in 2
Kings. This tradition is still practiced
today.
2
Kings 11:11: And the guards stood, every man with his weapons in his hand, from
the south side of the house to the north side of the house, around the altar and
the house on behalf of the king. 12 Then he brought out the king's son and put
the crown on him and gave him the testimony. And they proclaimed him king and anointed him, and they clapped their
hands and said, "Long live the king!"
13
When Athaliah heard the noise of the guard and of the people, she went into the
house of the Lord to the people. 14 And when she
looked, there was the king standing by
the pillar [Jacob’s
pillow, stone of scones],
according to the custom, and the captains and the trumpeters beside the king,
and all the people of the land rejoicing and blowing trumpets.
Three Overturns
Ezekiel prophesied there would be three overturns of
the crown:
Ezekiel 21:25
And thou, profane wicked prince of Israel, whose day is come, when iniquity shall have an end, 26 Thus saith the
Lord God; Remove the diadem, and take off the crown:
this shall not be the same: exalt him that is low, and abase him that is high.
27 I will overturn, overturn, overturn, it: and it shall be no more, until he come whose right it is; and I
will give it him.
The three overturns:
1.
In 583BC, during
the fall of Jerusalem when the first temple was destroyed, the stone was removed from Jerusalem and brought to
Ireland for the coronation
ceremony. There would be no Kings of
Judah during the time
of the captivity in Babylon. After they
were allowed to return to Judah, there were priestly kings until Jesus was born. Jesus
was the last King of Judah in the land of Judea.
2.
350 BC the stone
was moved to Scotland.
3.
1297AD the stone
was moved to England, Westminster Abby.
