Dry Bones
Ezekiel 37:4 “Prophesy to these bones, and you shall say to them, ‘O dry bones, hear the word of YHWH!“
Some would translate this revival of bodies to only mean spiritual, however this revival and resurrections happen right before the next vision of Gog and Magog, and the New Temple description and the New City. Ezekiel’s vision is much like we have in Revelations.
The Hebrew word for bone is Esem H6106 – ʿeṣem, and interestingly, the word is used in the same context with circumcisions – although translators never put the word bone there, it is always omitted, but in Hebrew the word is used with the circumcisions of the foreskin.

Gog and Magog
Ezekiel 38:2-3 “Son of man, set your face against Gog, of the land of Magog, .., and prophesy against him, and say, ‘Thus says YHWH Elohim: “Behold, I am against you, O Gog”
Further from verse 15 it explains that Magog is in the far north, and these things will happen in the latter days – the days also explained in Revelation 20. The verses say, “Then you will come from your place out of the far north, you and many peoples with you, all of them riding on horses, a great company and a mighty army. You will come up against My people Israel like a cloud, to cover the land. It will be in the latter days that I will bring you against My land, so that the nations may know Me, when I am hallowed in you, O Gog, before their eyes.””
