Ezekiel 37:9,10 - Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary

Bible Comments

How sweetly this teacheth both ministers and people, not only where to look for divine influences, but how in faith to ask them. The Lord Jesus hath commanded his people to ask the gifts of the Spirit; and numberless parts of scriptures testify the blessed efficacy of such prayers. Matthew 7:7-11; John 16:23-24; Ezekiel 36:37; Song of Solomon 4:16. And oh! what sure and gracious consequences must follow from the out-pouring of the Holy Ghost. Isaiah 44:3-5.

Ezekiel 37:9-10

9 Then said he unto me, Prophesy unto the wind,b 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.

10 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.
