Ezekiel 37:17

17 et adiunge illa unum ad alterum tibi in lignum unum et erunt in unionem in manu tua

Ezekiel 37:17 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 37:17

And join them one to another into one stick
Clap the sticks, planks, boards, or tables, to one another; glue them together, or set them so close to one another, that they may seem as one stick, plank, board, or table: and they shall become one in thine hand;
they shall look as if they were one. R. Joseph Kimchi, the father of David, thinks they really became one, by means of a miracle wrought; but there is no need to suppose this; it is enough that they appeared to be so.

Ezekiel 37:17 In-Context

15 et factus est sermo Domini ad me dicens
16 et tu fili hominis sume tibi lignum unum et scribe super illud Iudae et filiorum Israhel sociis eius et tolle lignum alterum et scribe super eum Ioseph lignum Ephraim et cunctae domui Israhel sociorumque eius
17 et adiunge illa unum ad alterum tibi in lignum unum et erunt in unionem in manu tua
18 cum autem dixerint ad te filii populi tui loquentes nonne indicas nobis quid in his tibi velis
19 loqueris ad eos haec dicit Dominus Deus ecce ego adsumam lignum Ioseph quod est in manu Ephraim et tribus Israhel quae iunctae sunt ei et dabo eas pariter cum ligno Iuda et faciam eas in lignum unum et erunt unum in manu eius
