Ezequiel 37:1

Eze 37:1 The hand of the LORD was upon me, and carried me out in the spirit of the LORD, and set me down in the midst of the valley which [was] full of bones,

Ver. 1. The hand of the Lord, ] i.e., The force and impulse of the Holy Spirit, fitly called "the hand of the Lord"; a because holy men of old spake and acted as they were moved or carried out by the Holy Ghost. 2Pe 2:22

In the spirit, ] i.e., In a spiritual rapture.

And set me down. ] Not really, but visionally.

In the midst of the valley. ] That same valley, some think, where Eze 1:3 he saw that glorious vision. Prophecies were often received, and prayers are best made, in one and the same place.

Which was full of bones. ] So it appeared to him in his ecstasy.
