What are biblical verses for tombstone unveiling?

Answer 1

Genesis 35:19, 20 is a common scripture recording the stone of remembrance. At Joshua 4: 1-9, God told the Israeliteâ??s to pick up stones and prepare them as a memorial. Romans 8: 35, 37-38 "What will separate us from the love of Christ?" is another one often used.

Answer 2

Oh honey, you wanna get biblical on a tombstone? Alright, how about Psalm 23:4 "Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me." Or maybe Ecclesiastes 3:1-2 "There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens: a time to be born and a time to die." Just remember, it's not the verse on the stone that matters, it's the memories you hold in your heart.

Answer 3

There are no specific biblical verses designated for tombstone unveilings in The Bible. However, some commonly used verses for such occasions include Psalm 23:4 ("Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me..."), John 11:25-26 ("I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in me will live, even though they die..."), and Revelation 21:4 ("He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain..."). These verses offer comfort and hope to those gathered to remember and honor the deceased.

Tombstones are not mentioned in the Bible. We searched the concordances for references to tombstones and grave markers. They were not used in ancient times. People either burned the deceased or buried them leaving a marker or plant or rock to identify the grave.

Answer 5

Selections from the book of Psalms are normally read during the unveiling ceremony.
