Ezekiel 37:14I will put my Spirit in you, and you shall live, and I will place you in your own land: and you shall know that I, Yahweh, have spoken it and performed it, says Yahweh.
The setting
Same vision continues. The bones have assembled into bodies, but they're still lifeless. Then God promises His Spirit — the very breath of life...
The emotion here: awestruck at witnessing God's creative power while recording this impossible vision
The original word
ruach (רוּחַ) — breath, wind, spirit — the same word used when God breathed life into Adam
Why it matters
This prophecy was fulfilled when 50,000 Jews returned from Babylon in 538 BC under Cyrus
