'Laying' in the Bible

Now Simon, [when he] saw that the Spirit was given through the laying on of the apostles' hands, offered them money,

just as it is written, "Behold, I am laying in Zion {a stone that causes people to stumble}, and {a rock that causes them to fall}, and the one who believes in him will not be put to shame."

Do not neglect the gift [that is] in you, that was granted to you through prophecy with the laying on of hands by the council of elders.

for which reason I remind you to rekindle the gift of God that is in you through the laying on of my hands.

Therefore, leaving behind the elementary message about Christ, let us move on to maturity, not laying again a foundation of repentance from dead works and faith in God,

teaching about baptisms and laying on of hands, and resurrection of the dead and eternal judgment.

For it stands in scripture, "Behold, I am laying in Zion a stone, a chosen [and] precious cornerstone, and the one who believes in him will never be put to shame."
