📚 Historical Context

Ezekiel was a prophet who lived during the Babylonian exile, a period when the Israelites had been conquered and taken captive, symbolizing their spiritual and national despair. In this vision of the Valley of Dry Bones, God commanded Ezekiel to prophesy to the bones as a dramatic illustration of divine power to restore life. Through this prophecy, the bones miraculously reassembled, foreshadowing God's promise to revive and reunite the exiled people of Israel.
