Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Ezekiel 37:7

_ _ noise — of the bones when coming in mutual collision. Perhaps referring to the decree of Cyrus, or the noise of the Jews’ exultation at their deliverance and return.

_ _ bones came together — literally, “ye bones came together”; as in Jeremiah 49:11 (Hebrew), “ye widows of thine shall trust in Me.” The second person puts the scene vividly before one’s eyes, for the whole resurrection scene is a prophecy in action to render more palpably to the people the prophecy in word (Ezekiel 37:21).

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Ezekiel 37:1-14.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Ezekiel 37:7

Prophesied — Declared these promises. As I prophesied — While I was prophesying. A noise — A rattling of the bones in their motion. A shaking — A trembling or commotion among the bones, enough to manifest a divine presence, working among them. Came together — Glided nearer and nearer, 'till each bone met the bone to which it was to be joined. Of all the bones of all those numerous slain, not one was missing, not one missed its way, not one missed its place, but each knew and found its fellow. Thus in the resurrection of the dead, the scattered atoms shall be arranged in their proper place and order, and every bone come to his bone, by the same wisdom and power by which they were first formed in the womb of her that is with child.
