Historically, after the reign of Solomon, the kingdom split into the northern kingdom (Israel) and the southern kingdom (Judah). This division led to separate political, religious, and cultural developments. The prophecy of reunification signifies a return to unity under God's sovereignty. This also foreshadows the ultimate unity of God's people, as seen in the New Testament, where believers are united in Christ (<a href="/ephesians/2-14.htm">Ephesians 2:14-16</a>).<p><b>on the mountains of Israel</b><br>The mountains of Israel are significant both geographically and symbolically. Geographically, they refer to the central highlands of the land of Israel, a region of historical and strategic importance. Symbolically, mountains often represent stability and permanence in biblical literature. This setting underscores the enduring nature of God's promise to restore and unify His people in their ancestral land.<p><b>and one king will rule over all of them</b><br>This phrase points to the messianic expectation of a single, divinely appointed ruler. Historically, the divided kingdoms had separate kings, but the prophecy envisions a future where one king, often interpreted as the Messiah, will reign over a united Israel. This is seen as a type of Christ, who is the ultimate King and Shepherd of His people (<a href="/john/10-16.htm">John 10:16</a>, <a href="/revelation/19-16.htm">Revelation 19:16</a>).<p><b>Then they will no longer be two nations</b><br>The division into two nations was a result of sin and disobedience, leading to political and spiritual fragmentation. The promise of no longer being two nations signifies healing and restoration. This reflects God's desire for unity among His people, a theme echoed in the New Testament with the unity of the Church (<a href="/galatians/3-28.htm">Galatians 3:28</a>).<p><b>and will never again be divided into two kingdoms</b><br>This final phrase emphasizes the permanence of the reunification. Historically, the division was a source of conflict and weakness. The prophecy assures that such division will not recur, highlighting the eternal nature of God's covenant with His people. This can be seen as a precursor to the eternal kingdom established by Christ, where division and strife are abolished (<a href="/revelation/21-4.htm">Revelation 21:4</a>).<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <b><a href="/topical/e/ezekiel.htm">Ezekiel</a></b><br>A prophet during the Babylonian exile, Ezekiel is the mouthpiece of God, delivering messages of judgment and restoration to the Israelites.<br><br>2. <b><a href="/topical/i/israel.htm">Israel</a></b><br>The northern kingdom, which was previously divided from Judah, representing the people of God who are promised reunification.<br><br>3. <b><a href="/topical/j/judah.htm">Judah</a></b><br>The southern kingdom, which, along with Israel, will be united under one king as prophesied by Ezekiel.<br><br>4. <b><a href="/topical/m/mountains_of_israel.htm">Mountains of Israel</a></b><br>Symbolic of the promised land where the reunification and restoration of the nation will occur.<br><br>5. <b><a href="/topical/o/one_king.htm">One King</a></b><br>A prophetic reference to a future leader, often interpreted as the Messiah, who will unite and rule over the restored nation.<div class="vheading2">Teaching Points</div><b><a href="/topical/u/unity_in_christ.htm">Unity in Christ</a></b><br>Just as God promised to unite Israel and Judah, believers today are called to unity in Christ, transcending divisions within the body of Christ.<br><br><b><a href="/topical/m/messianic_fulfillment.htm">Messianic Fulfillment</a></b><br>The prophecy of one king points to Jesus Christ, the ultimate King who unites all believers under His lordship.<br><br><b><a href="/topical/h/hope_in_restoration.htm">Hope in Restoration</a></b><br>God's promise to restore and reunite His people offers hope for personal and communal restoration in our lives today.<br><br><b><a href="/topical/d/divine_sovereignty.htm">Divine Sovereignty</a></b><br>The prophecy underscores God's control over history and His ability to fulfill His promises, encouraging trust in His plans.<br><br><b><a href="/topical/c/call_to_reconciliation.htm">Call to Reconciliation</a></b><br>As God reconciles Israel and Judah, believers are called to pursue reconciliation in their relationships, reflecting God's heart for unity.<div class="vheading2">Lists and Questions</div><a href="/top10/lessons_from_ezekiel_37.htm">Top 10 Lessons from Ezekiel 37</a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><a href="/q/how_is_ezekiel_37_25-28_fulfilled_today.htm">How can Ezekiel 37:25–28’s everlasting covenant and sanctuary be understood when there seems to be no clear historical or present-day fulfillment matching this depiction?</a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><a href="/q/why_hasn't_ezekiel_37_21-22_been_fulfilled.htm">How do we explain the apparent lack of fulfillment of Ezekiel 37:21-22, which promises a unified kingdom under one ruler, given the continued dispersion and divisions of the Jewish people?</a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><a href="/q/how_is_ezekiel_37_24's_'david'_consistent.htm">If Ezekiel 37:24 refers to David as king, how is this consistent with a historical timeline where David's dynasty effectively ended during the exile?</a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><a href="/q/bible_books'_order.htm">What is the order of the Bible's books?</a><a name="commentary" id="commentary"></a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><span class="versiontext"><a href="/commentaries/ezekiel/37-22.htm">Parallel Commentaries ...</a></span><span class="p"><br /><br /><br /></span><a name="lexicon" id="lexicon"></a><div class="vheading">Hebrew</div><span class="word">I will make</span><br /><span class="heb">וְעָשִׂ֣יתִי</span> <span class="translit">(wə·‘ā·śî·ṯî)</span><br /><span class="parse">Conjunctive waw | Verb -
