The valley of dry bones is like the valley of the dead because it is full of the workers of iniquity. Those dry bones must choose to seek the righteousness of God but are often not willing to receive the breath of God and hear the words that set the captive free. In pride they cling to their false doctrines until the dead are burying the dead.

The Carcass of the dead

A carcass is defined as the dead body of an animal.

The Hebrew word (נְבֵלָה)‎ nëbelah is translated carcase and dead body but it is from the Hebrew nabel (נָבֵל‎ ) meaning to to be senseless, be foolish and can be associated sometimes with idols. Those who pursued the systems of legal charity offered by Nimrod and city-states like Sodom or Sumer and would not divide or separate themselves from the Dove Goddesses of Mesopotamia were seen as foolish like Saul who forced an offering and thereby cut themselves off from the Creator God of Natural Law with their covetous practices.


Leviticus 5:2 "Or if a soul touch any unclean[1] thing[2], whether it be a carcase (בְנִבְלַ֨ת)[3] of an unclean beast[4], or a carcase of unclean cattle[5] , or the carcase of unclean creeping things[6], and if it be hidden from him; he also shall be unclean, and guilty.[7]"


Beneblat the foolish

Why did Moses use the term ‎ nëbelah which was from נָבֵל‎ nabel[8] meaning "to be senseless, be foolish"?

And why did Moses use the term bəniḇlaṯ spelled BeitNunBeitLamedTav (בְנִבְלַ֨ת) instead of נְבֵלָה‎ nëbelah[3] by itself?

Mappeleth the the fallen

There are other words translated carcase like mappeleth (מַפֶּלֶת‎)[MemPeiLamedTav][9] which can mean ruined or overthrown and is said to be from Naphal (נָפַל)‎ [NunPeiLamed] meaning "to fall... cast down".

We see an example of this word which is clearly the body of a lion used in a story full of symbols:

Judges 14:8 "And after a time <03117> he returned <07725> to take <03947> her, and he turned aside <05493> to see <07200> the carcase[9] of the lion <0738>: and, behold, [there was] a swarm <05712> of bees <01682> and honey <01706> in the carcase[10] of the lion <0738>."

Gaviyah the body of pride

Another word translated carcase as well as body and corpse which is the Hebrew word gëviyah (גְּוִיָּה)‎[10] which is a prolonged form of the word gevah (גֵּוָה)‎ [11] meaning "the back".

But we can also see the same letters (גֵּוָה)‎‎ gevah with the Strong's numbers 01466[12] and 01467[13] which both are said to mean pride. And we also know that before the fall cometh pride.

Ruining the life of the body

How did you kill the life of a nation?

To know how you degenerate the masses so that they might be ruined the people so that they might fall or fail and die is important so that you know what to turn away from and what to repent of so that you might live.


In the Life of Coriolanus, Sec. 14 Plutarch wrote in 100 AD, "That the man who first ruined the Roman people twas he who first gave them treats and gratuities. But this mischief crept secretly and gradually in, and did not openly make it's appearance in Rome for a considerable time."[14]

Certainly, Julius Caesar boosted this process but he was not alone in these covetous practices the ruined the Roman people. To be fair Caesar like the dictators of the world are a symptom of the people's appetite for these benefits and their desire for the dainties of rulers which led to the degeneration of the masses and the ushering in of tyranny. This concept of ruining the people, the whole nation has been repeated over and over and over through out all history.

Breathing life into the dead

The Dry bones of Ezekiel 37:4 are dead but it is asked can the hear,[15] can they live again?

We are told that God can give us breath and we can live again.[16]

Nut we need to repent of our covetous practice of legal charity and return to The Way we will not have life more abundant. This is why Jesus said:

"But Jesus said unto him, Follow me; and let the dead bury their dead." Matthew 8:22
"Jesus said unto him, Let the dead bury their dead: but go thou and preach the kingdom of God." Luke 9:60

Christ came to give life. If we come in His name we will do the same.

That is what seeking the kingdom of God and His righteousness is all about. Instead of biting one another and being entangled in covetous practices which has been casting our neighbor and ourselves into bondage of Egypt and curse children with debt we will choose to come together and learn to live by faith, hope, and charity which is love.
