How do we know Jesus is the rock mentioned in Scripture?

Answered in 1 source

Moses describes the Lord as a rock, symbolizing His steadfastness and perfection, which Paul identifies as Christ.

In Deuteronomy 32:4, Moses refers to God as 'the rock,' emphasizing His perfect work and reliability. Paul reinforces this in 1 Corinthians 10:4, stating that 'the rock was Christ.' This identification shows that Jesus embodies the qualities of the rock — immovable, steadfast, and a source of spiritual sustenance. The continuity of this imagery from the Old Testament to the New Testament highlights the centrality of Jesus in God's redemptive plan.
