Concept:The vision of the valley of dry bones is a prophetic sign of the restoration of the people of Israel from exile.
Explanation:In the book of Ezekiel, chapter
37, God brings the prophet Ezekiel into a valley covered with dry bones.
God asks him, "Can these bones live?" and Ezekiel humbly answers that only the Lord knows.
Then God commands Ezekiel to prophesy to the bones, telling them to hear the word of the Lord.
As Ezekiel obeys, the bones come together, gain sinews, flesh, and skin, and then receive breath so they stand up alive as an immense army.
God explains the meaning of the vision to Ezekiel.
The dry bones represent the whole house of Israel in exile, feeling dried up and without hope.
Just as God made the dry bones live, so He will open the graves of Israel, put His Spirit in them, and bring them back to their own land.
This demonstrates that God alone has power to restore and revive His people.
Answer:The prophet connected with the "valley of dry bones" vision is Ezekiel, therefore option A is the correct answer.
