Great observation and great question John. You are correct. The Ezekiel chapters you mentioned speak of future events. However, the unfolding of those events, namely, Israel back in the Land, is progressive and incremental, as is illustrated in the step by step vision of the Valley of Dry Bones.

The ultimate fulfillment of Ezekiel’s prophecy is yet future, however, the initial steps towards that fulfillment are taking place in our day.

Hey Brother Stuart,

Thank you for your well thought out and articulated post.

I have a question. I have drawn the conclusion that (Ezekiel 36:24) has yet to be fulfilled. Aren't Ezekiel 34, 36, and 37 fulfilled when Jesus returns and the kingdom is established?

Much food for thought, Pastor Stuart. I’m going to read a 2nd time to help fortify my own understanding. I’m glad you jumped on Substack.
