The public press joined the clergy in vilifying God's people, one paper saying: "The finish of the Finished Mystery has been given." Nothing, though, could have been further from the truth! The two witnesses did not stay dead. We read: "And after the three and a half days spirit of life from God entered into them, and they stood up on their feet, and great fear fell upon those beholding them. And they heard a loud voice out of heaven say to them: "Come on up here." And they up into heaven in the cloud, and their enemies beheld them." (Revelation 11:11,12) Thus, they had an experince similar to that of the dry bones in the valley that Ezekiel breathed upon thse dry bones, and they came to life, providing a picture of th rebirth of the nation of Israel after 70 years of captivity in Babylon. (Ezekiel 37:1-14) These two prophecies, in Ezekiel and in Revelation, had their striking modern-dauy fulfillment om 11919. when Jehovah restored his "deceased" witnesses to vibrant life.
