God had brought Ezekiel by the spirit to the Valley of Dry Bones in order to reassure the exiles that His promises remained secure. After being away from their homeland for so long, they felt like God had forgotten them. So when God asked Ezekiel if the dry bones could live again…He was pledging specific and immediate hope to the exiles who were longing to be restored to their own country. And when this vast army rose to their feet, it was God reassuring His people that though they felt like all hope was gone, He would surely bring them back to the land of Israel. For in the end, this become God’s testimony to His power and rule…His ability to restore life and hope even in the most desolate circumstances…and His abiding promise of restoration and revival for His people.
