So I prophesied as he commanded me, and the breath came into them, and they lived, and stood up upon their feet, an exceeding great army.
So I spoke exactly what he told me to say, and suddenly breath rushed into them. They came alive and got up on their feet, this massive, incredible army just standing there.

📚 Historical Context
In the Book of Ezekiel, the prophet is in exile in Babylon during the 6th century BC, and God gives him a vision of a valley filled with dry bones to illustrate the desolation of Israel after their defeat and captivity. This vision symbolizes the spiritual and national deadness of God's people due to their sins and the Babylonian exile. When Ezekiel obeys God's command to prophesy, the bones miraculously come to life, representing God's promise to restore and revive the nation of Israel.
