2 Kings 5:10-14
10And Elisha sent a messenger to him, saying, a“Go and wash in the Jordan seven times, and your flesh shall be restored, and you shall be clean.” 11But Naaman was angry and went away, saying, “Behold, I thought that he would surely come out to me and stand and call upon the name of the Lord his God, and wave his hand over the place and cure the leper. 12Are not Abana ▼▼Or Amana
and Pharpar, the rivers of cDamascus, better than all the waters of Israel? Could I not wash in them and be clean?” So he turned and went away in a rage. 13But his servants came near and said to him, d“My father, it is a great word the prophet has spoken to you; will you not do it? Has he actually said to you, ‘Wash, and be clean’?” 14So he went down and dipped himself seven times in the Jordan, according to the word of the man of God, eand his flesh was restored like the flesh of a little child, fand he was clean. Ezekiel 37:4-7
4Then he said to me, g“Prophesy over these bones, and say to them, hO dry bones, hear the word of the Lord. 5Thus says the Lord God to these bones: Behold, I will cause ibreath ▼▼Or spirit; also verses 6, 9, 10
to enter you, and you shall live. 6 kAnd I will lay sinews upon you, and will cause flesh to come upon you, and lcover you with skin, and put breath in you, and you shall live, mand you shall know that I am the Lord.” 7So I prophesied nas I was commanded. And as I prophesied, there was a sound, and behold, oa rattling, ▼
▼Or an earthquake (compare 3:12, 13)
and the bones came together, bone to its bone. Luke 6:46-48
Build Your House on the Rock
46 q“Why rdo you call me ‘Lord, Lord,’ and not do what I tell you? 47 sEveryone who comes to me and hears my words and does them, I will show you what he is like: 48he is like a man building a house, who dug deep and laid the foundation on the rock. And when a flood arose, the stream broke against that house and could not shake it, because it had been well built. ▼▼Some manuscripts founded upon the rock
