Those bones, Those bones,
Those dry bones...
10/30/21
Notice that those bones that God is going to bring the sinews and the flesh back upon,...upon the Jewish people that He will resurrect and bring back to life etc., that they were "slain"....murdered:
.
(Ezekiel 37:9 KJ) Then said he unto me, Prophesy unto the wind, prophesy, son of man, and say to the wind, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Come from the four winds, O breath, and breathe upon these slain, that they may live.
.
Note: "the four winds"...See those four winds here too:
.
(Revelation 7:1 KJ) And after these things I saw four angels standing on the four corners of the earth, holding the four winds of the earth, that the wind should not blow on the earth, nor on the sea, nor on any tree.
.
....This holding back the "four winds" concerns the 144,000 Jewish brothers of the Lord Jesus whom God will seal before the 7 year tribulation starts:
.
(Isaiah 66:7,8 KJ) Before she travailed, she brought forth; before her pain came, she was delivered of a man child. (8) Who hath heard such a thing? who hath seen such things? Shall the earth be made to bring forth in one day? or shall a nation be born at once? for as soon as Zion travailed, she brought forth her children.
…..”brought forth”…”shall the earth be made to bring forth”…..c.f. with:
(Ezekiel 37:12 KJ) Therefore prophesy and say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, O my people, I will open your graves, and cause you to come up out of your graves, and bring you into the land of Israel.
These 144,000 Jewish males from the 12 tribes of Israel, except for Dan and Ephraim (Rev 7:4-8 KJ), are the ones that the Lord Jesus sentences people to hell for not helping, during the last 7 years: (Matt 25:41-46 KJ), which is the Abrahamic Covenant resumed (Gen 12:1-3 KJ).
.
Notice also that the 144,000 "brethren" of the Lord (Matt 25:40 KJ) represent "the whole house of Israel"
.
(Ezekiel 37:11 KJ) Then he said unto me, Son of man, these bones are the whole house of Israel: behold, they say, Our bones are dried, and our hope is lost: we are cut off for our parts.
.
You can see this "whole house of Israel" in the (Ezekiel 37) passage concerning the dry bones that come back together and live again, in the (Rev 7) passage concerning the 144,000 Jewish males that God will seal to be His witnesses on the earth during the first 3 1/2 years of the tribulation. Note: "all the tribes of the children of Israel"...:
.
(Revelation 7:4 KJ) And I heard the number of them which were sealed: and there were sealed an hundred and forty and four thousand of all the tribes of the children of Israel.
.
Notice also that the 144,000 are the "firstfruits" (wave sheaf) unto God, and "follow the Lamb whithersoever he goeth" just like those that 'came back to life,' after the resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ did:
.
(Revelation 14:4 KJ) These are they which were not defiled with women; for they are virgins. These are they which follow the Lamb whithersoever he goeth. These were redeemed from among men, being the firstfruits unto God and to the Lamb.
.
(Leviticus 23:10,11 KJ) Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When ye be come into the land which I give unto you, and shall reap the harvest thereof, then ye shall bring a sheaf of the firstfruits of your harvest unto the priest:
(11) And he shall wave the sheaf before the LORD, to be accepted for you: on the morrow after the sabbath the priest shall wave it.
.
(Matthew 27:52,53 KJ) And the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints which slept arose,
(53) And came out of the graves after his resurrection, and went into the holy city, and appeared unto many.
