Eze 37:3He said to me, Son of man, can these bones live? I answered, Lord GOD, you know.

Eze 37:8

Eze 37:8I saw, and, behold, there were sinews on them, and flesh came up, and skin covered them above; but there was no breath in them.

Eze 37:22and I will make them one nation in the land, on the mountains of Yisra'el; and one king shall be king to them all; and they shall be no more two nations, neither shall they be divided into two kingdoms any more at all;

Eze 37:23

Eze 37:23neither shall they defile themselves any more with their idols, nor with their detestable things, nor with any of their transgressions; but I will save them out of all their dwelling-places, in which they have sinned, and will cleanse them: so shall they be my people, and I will be their God.
