Yechezkel 37:20 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 37:20

And the sticks whereon thou writest
Or art about to write the above things, according to order and direction: shall be in thine hand before their eyes;
shall be held up to them to look at for some time, and observe the cement of the two sticks; and learn and lay up in their minds what is meant by this emblem; and be assured that what is hereafter said as a further explication of it shall certainly be fulfilled.

Yechezkel 37:20 In-Context

18 And when the Bnei Amecha speak unto thee, saying, Wilt thou not show us what thou meanest by these?
19 Say unto them, Thus saith Adonoi Hashem: Hinei, I will take the Etz Yosef, which is in the Yad Ephrayim, and the Shivtei Yisroel his chaverim, and will put them with him, even with the Etz Yehudah, and make them Etz Echad, and they shall be Echad in Mine Yad.
20 And the Etzim whereon thou writest shall be in thine yad before their eyes.
21 And say unto them, Thus saith Adonoi Hashem: Hinei, I will take the Bnei Yisroel from among the Goyim, whither they be gone, and will gather them on every side, and bring them into their own land;
22 And I will make them Goy Echad in the land upon the mountains of Yisroel; and Melech Echad shall be Melech to them all; and they shall be no more two Goyim, neither shall they be divided into two Mamlachot any more at all.
