Title: WHY THE CHEVRON, THE PYRAMID SHAPE? THE BIBLE REVEALS IT •

Q: Most of you are familiar with the English Bible referring to Jesus as the "chief cornerstone" in Ephesians 2:20 and 1 Peter 2:6. However, that is a sloppy and misleading translation of the Koine Greek word "akrogoniaion." This word means, very literally, "cap-corner." More idiomatically it can be rendered "capstone of the corner."
There is only ONE geometric shape in which a stone can be simultaneously a CAP-stone and a CORNER-stone, and that shape is the PYRAMID! Jesus is being compared to the capstone on a pyramid by the use of this word. Hence, the pyramid shape on his tomb.

Look up alphabets on Wikipedia.You will find the Hebrew and related letters that will explain the tomb markings.Also I did a take on the metaphysical meaning of the symbols on the topic :Any Wiccan/Pagan views? on this website.
