Ezekiel has more than a message of judgment for the people. He looks forward to the renewed covenant and the future acts of God that will redeem the past and present.

37:1-14The exiles are “dead” as a valley of dry bones.God will “resurrect” them, sending them home.
37:15-28The monarchy is divided into smaller states.It will reunite under a new Davidic king.
38:1–39:20Attackers have conquered Israel and Judah.God will bury invading armies.
40:1–42:20Solomon’s temple lies in ruins.Ezekiel provides a floor plan for a new temple.
44:9Foreigners have attacked and destroyed the temple.In the future, no foreigners will enter the temple.
