And he led me round among them; and behold, there were very many upon the valley; and lo, they were very dry. And he said to me, &#8220;Son of man, can these bones live?&#8221; And I answered, &#8220;O Lord GOD, thou knowest.&#8221; Again he said to me, &#8220;Prophesy to these bones, and say to them, O dry bones, hear the word of the LORD. Thus says the Lord GOD to these bones: Behold, I will cause breath to enter you, and you shall live. And I will lay sinews upon you, and will cause flesh to come upon you, and cover you with skin, and put breath in you, and you shall live; and you shall know that I am the LORD.&#8221; So I prophesied as I was commanded; and as I prophesied, there was a noise, and behold, a rattling; and the bones came together, bone to its bone. And as I looked, there were sinews on them, and flesh had come upon them, and skin had covered them; but there was no breath in them. Then he said to me, &#8220;Prophesy to the breath, prophesy, son of man, and say to the breath, Thus says the Lord GOD: Come from the four winds, O breath, and breathe upon these slain, that they may live.&#8221; So I prophesied as he commanded me, and the breath came into them, and they lived, and stood upon their feet, an exceedingly great host. Then he said to me, &#8220;Son of man, these bones are the whole house of Israel. Behold, they say, &#8216;Our bones are dried up, and our hope is lost; we are clean cut off.&#8217; Therefore prophesy, and say to them, Thus says the Lord GOD: Behold, I will open your graves, and raise you from your graves, O my people; and I will bring you home into the land of Israel. And you shall know that I am the LORD, when I open your graves, and raise you from your graves, O my people. And I will put my Spirit within you, and you shall live, and I will place you in your own land; then you shall know that I, the LORD, have spoken, and I have done it, says the LORD.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8211;Ezekiel 37:1-14<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">If Cape Cod sunrises had a Yelp rating, today\u2019s would get a solid 5 stars &#x2b50;&#xfe0f;&#x2b50;&#xfe0f;&#x2b50;&#xfe0f;&#x2b50;&#xfe0f;&#x2b50;&#xfe0f;<br \/>Nauset Harbor, Orleans, Massachusetts. <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/sunrise?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#sunrise<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/capecod?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#capecod<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/StormHour?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#StormHour<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/eknsNPjW1H\">pic.twitter.com\/eknsNPjW1H<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Darius Aniunas (@dariusaniunas) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/dariusaniunas\/status\/1646449177398788096?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">April 13, 2023<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p> <script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The hand of the LORD was upon me, and he brought me out by the Spirit of the LORD, and set me down in the midst of the valley; it was full of bones.
