What Does Ezekiel 37:13 Mean?
The knowledge of God's name—His character and power—comes through experiencing His redemptive work. Israel will not merely hear about God's power but will experience it directly in their restoration. The opening of graves and the rising up are not abstract theological points but lived experiences.
This knowledge is intimate and transformative. Having been brought from death to life, from exile to restoration, Israel will possess experiential understanding of God's power and faithfulness that no mere declaration could convey.
