Stone upon a stone

Was the "stone upon another" really about ruling one over the other?

The idea of a stone upon a stone[1] had a double meaning.

Christ prophesied the destruction of the temple, but also it was the end to the domination of an hierarchy that exercised authority one over the other.

There was an hierarchy within the Church, but it was not a system where men rule over one another, but it was a system of government where the "greatest among you" was great because he "doth serve".[2]

The Bible is filled with Allegory and Metaphor, which can allow Sophistry to produce a Strong delusion in the minds of the people.

If the Altars of Clay and Stone were not just piles of dirt and rocks, why were they made of unhewn stones?[3]

If a gathering of stones was a company of men, then what were the Stones that Jesus was tempted to turn into bread?

What was the Golden calf and the sacrifice of the Red Heifer, and why did the people have to sew the Breeches of the Levites?

And if the Lively stones were people, did Stoning originally mean a practice that did not include hitting people with rocks until they were physically dead?

Finding the answers to these questions may make it clear who Christ appointed and why and what they were to do and how they were to do it. The Minsters appointed by Christ were to be benefactors of the people, but they were to do so without exercising authority, forcing contributions or ruling over the people.
