Can These Bones Live? is a short biblical reflection on Ezekiel’s unforgettable vision of the valley of dry bones in Ezekiel 37:1-14.
In this remarkable passage, the prophet is brought by the Spirit of the Lord into a valley filled with bones. They are very many and very dry. Humanly speaking, there is no life, no strength, no movement, and no hope. Yet into that scene of desolation, God speaks.
This booklet explores the vision with reverence, care, and hope. It considers the hand of the Lord upon Ezekiel, the valley full of bones, the searching question, “Can these bones live?”, the command to prophesy, the bones coming together, the breath entering the slain, and the promise of God to open graves and restore His people.
The vision first speaks to Israel’s condition in exile and God’s promise of restoration. The people say, “Our bones are dry, our hope is lost, and we ourselves are cut off.” But God answers their despair with His own life-giving word.
Through twelve reflective chapters, Can These Bones Live? shows that human impossibility is not greater than divine mercy. The bones cannot raise themselves. The prophet cannot give life by his own power. Outward form alone is not enough. Life must come from God, by His word and Spirit.
The booklet also points forward to Jesus Christ, the risen Lord, through whom God brings sinners from death to life. In Him, despair is not final, graves are opened, and hope is restored.
Written in a sober, pastoral, and accessible style, this booklet invites readers to face spiritual dryness honestly, depend upon the life-giving power of God, and look to Christ, the resurrection and the life.
