Ezekiel 37:5

Anglican
SCRIPTURE

"Thus saith the Lord Jehovah unto these bones: Behold, I will cause breath to enter into you, and ye shall live." — Ezekiel 37:5 (ASV)

Breath. —The three words, “breath,” “wind,” and “spirit,” are represented in the Hebrew by the same word, and the context must determine which sense is intended. Similarly in Greek there is the same word for the last two of these. (Compare to John 3:5-8.)
