Vision of the dry trees
Ezekiel's prophecy deals with the possibility of the resurrection of the people of Israel using the example or parable of the resurrection of the dead.
("And I set me down in the midst of the valley, and it was full of trees... And I passed over them, round about, round about, and, behold, there were very many upon the face of the valley, and, behold, they were very dry.... And I prophesied, as he commanded me, and the spirit came into them, and they lived, and they stood upon their feet an exceedingly great army. And he said unto me, Son of man, these trees are all a house "Israel is what" - Ezekiel 37:1-11)
