Look at what Ezekiel prophesized: David my servant shall be king over them; they shall all have one shepherd...with David my servant as their prince forever.
How can David live forever? Is your first thought that Nietzsche's claim that God is dead, correct? You might think of that. Well, think again. The Messiah was also called David because He is David's descendant. Ezekiel's prophesy goes beyond the physical and geographical location of Israel. The Lord brings people back to life, not resuscitation as Jesus raising Lazarus from the dead, or Saint Dominic raising Gutadona's son. God promises to be with the Hebrews spiritually as well as in the Arc of the Covenant and the Tabernacle in our churches. The Lord promises to breathe new spiritual life into his people so that the sanctuary of their souls will be united with Him and with one another. God is with us forever.
