Bones are connected and given flesh and muscle.

“Indeed, as I looked, the sinews and the flesh came upon them, and the skin covered them over; but there was no breath in them.” Ezekiel 37:8

After the Jewish people migrated to the State of Israel in 1948, they were but a skeleton as far as being a nation. Even so, God fulfilled His word by holding them together as a people with social tendons, ligaments, and every other such types of societal glue. God continued to develop the newly formed State of Israel by adding flesh and muscle to make the body of the Jewish nation complete. God continued to cover them with skin to make them presentable to the world. To emphasize Israel going from a skeleton of a nation, to being a full body nation, the State of Israel was made a full member of the United Nations in 1949. Unfortunately, the State of Israel has never made it as a member of the body of Christ.

As God resurrects us from the dead through Jesus Christ, and our bones suddenly rattle as they literally come together, then He is going to literally add ligaments, tendons, flesh, muscle, and skin to us. We are going to be resurrected in our body, a redeemed and eternal body, like the body that Jesus Christ has and obtained after His resurrection. As described below,

“Now as they said these things, Jesus Himself stood in the midst of them, and said to them, “Peace to you.” But they were terrified and frightened, and supposed they had seen a spirit. And He said to them, “Why are you troubled? And why do doubts arise in your hearts? Behold My hands and My feet, that it is I Myself. Handle Me and see, for a spirit does not have flesh and bones as you see I have.” When He had said this, He showed them His hands and His feet. But while they still did not believe for joy, and marveled, He said to them, “Have you any food here?” So they gave Him a piece of a broiled fish and some honeycomb. And He took it and ate in their presence.” Luke 24:36-43

“….to you who do not hold to her teaching and have not learned Satan’s so-called deep secrets,“
‘I will not impose any other burden on you, except to hold on to what you have until I come.’”
“I am coming soon. Hold on to what you have, so that no one will take your crown.”
Revelation 2:24-25, 3:1
