TTN Tyndale Theme Notes:

The Promise of New Life

The Resurrection is a core tenet of Christian faith—without it, our faith is useless (1 Cor 15:14). God has promised that we share this resurrection with Christ (Col 3:1), and it is important to rightly understand exactly what new life God promises to us.

Ezekiel 37 might at first appear to teach that all people will be resurrected from the dead, living again in new bodies after their present bodies die. However, Ezekiel is not dealing with the general question, “Can human bones return to life?” Ezekiel and his audience were already familiar with the possibility of dead people being raised to life because of their knowledge of the miracles of Elijah and Elisha (1 Kgs 17:17-24; 2 Kgs 4:31-37; 13:20-21). Instead, Ezekiel is addressing the particular question, “Can these bones live?” That is, could the nation of Judah—a denuded, dismembered, and desiccated nation—be restored?

At that time, the Babylonians had devastated Judah, the Temple had been destroyed, and many of the people had been exiled to Babylon. The people still in Judah were a mere remnant, only the poorest of the poor (see 2 Kgs 25:8-12). Many concluded that there was no future for God’s people. They said, “We have become old, dry bones—all hope is gone. Our nation is finished” (Ezek 37:11). The question was not whether God could raise them to new life, but whether he would perform such a miracle for the dry bones that represented Israel.

The prophet answered this question with a resounding Yes! God would return his people to life through an outpouring of his Spirit in response to the prophet’s word. Their death because of their sins was real, but God would not leave them in the grave (cp. Ps 16:10). Rather, he promised that in the future he would give his people life by his Spirit and would transform them into a new creation, a new Spirit-filled Israel. This new people of God would be raised to their feet as a mighty army that would serve the Lord.

God is capable of raising to life both those who are physically dead and those who are spiritually dead. He chooses to give the miracle of new birth to undeserving sinners (see John 3:5-7; Eph 2:1-7). Those who experience the death of sin in their lives also experience the new life that God offers through his Spirit—both now and in eternity (see Rom 8:5-13; Col 3:1-11). He makes people whom the world would write off as irredeemable acceptable to himself in Christ (1 Cor 6:9-11), and he equips them for fruitful work in his service (Eph 4:12-13; 6:11-18).
