Dry bones are not only dead; they have been dead a long time. They have laid there and been bleached by the sun. Bones are what remains when life is gone. They are the residue of what was once there, a vast army that died.  When something has been dead this long, we can give up hope it will ever live again. Maybe you have some dreams that have died a long time ago?
Ezekiel 37:3 Then He said to me, “Son of man, can these bones live?” And I answered, “Lord God, You Yourself know.”  When God asks a question, it’s not a trick question to trip us up, but one that we should be honest with the answer as He already knows all things. Also pay special attention to what He is asking. 
One could hope that someone who recently died might somehow be resuscitated. No one would believe that scattered, dry and sun-scorched, detached bones might live. These bones were as dead as dead could be! Wisely, Ezekiel answers God’s question with the only one that he could, saying “O Lord GOD, You know.”
