**bones**
Having announced [Ezekiel 36:24-38](../../../kjv/ezekiel/36/24-38) the restoration of the nation, Jehovah now gives in vision and symbol the method of its accomplishment. [Ezekiel 37:11](../../../kjv/ezekiel/37/11) gives the clue. The "bones" are the whole house of Israel who shall then be living. The "graves" are the nations where they dwell. The order of procedure is:
(1) the bringing of the people out [Ezekiel 37:12-14](../../../kjv/ezekiel/37/12-14); [Ezekiel 37:19-27](../../../kjv/ezekiel/37/19-27)
(2) the bringing of them in ([Ezekiel 37:12](../../../kjv/ezekiel/37/12));
(3) their conversion ([Ezekiel 37:13](../../../kjv/ezekiel/37/13))
(4) the filling with the Spirit ([Ezekiel 37:14](../../../kjv/ezekiel/37/14)).
The symbol follows. The two sticks are Judah and the ten tribes; united, they are one nation ([Ezekiel 37:19-21](../../../kjv/ezekiel/37/19-21)). Then follows ([Ezekiel 37:21-27](../../../kjv/ezekiel/37/21-27)) the plain declaration as to Jehovah's purpose, and [Ezekiel 37:28](../../../kjv/ezekiel/37/28) implies that then Jehovah will become known to the Gentiles in a marked way. This is also the order of [Acts 15:16](../../../kjv/acts/15/16); [Acts 15:17](../../../kjv/acts/15/17) and the two passages strongly indicate the time of full Gentile conversion. See also [Isaiah 11:10](../../../kjv/isaiah/11/10).
