Ezéchiel 37.16

Un bâton. Littéralement : un bois. Mais ce n'est pas ici un morceau de bois quelconque ; on voit plus loin (verset 19) que ce bâton se trouve être un bâton de commandement, l'emblème du pouvoir, un sceptre ; comparez 21.15, note. L'acte du prophète rappelle celui de Moïse, Nombres 17.1-13, lorsqu'il plaça dans le sanctuaire douze verges portant chacune le nom du chef de l'une des douze tribus.

A Juda et aux fils d'Israël... Ce bâton était destiné à représenter la tribu et le royaume de Juda avec les tribus qui y étaient restées attachées ; c'étaient celles de Siméon, de Benjamin et la plus grande partie des Lévites.

A Joseph. De Joseph étaient issues les deux tribus d'Ephraïm et de Manassé. Comme la première avait été la tribu la plus puissante du royaume des dix tribus, c'est elle qui est choisie pour représenter ce royaume ; seulement au nom d'Ephraïm est substitué celui de Joseph, conformément au rôle considérable souvent attribué à ce patriarche, par exemple dans la bénédiction de Jacob à ses fils (Genèse chapitre 49), où Joseph est honoré à l'égal de Juda. Comparez Psaumes 72.16 ; 78.67 ; 80.2 ; 81.6.

Et de toute la maison d'Israël. La majeure partie des tribus avaient suivi celle d'Ephraïm quand elle s'était séparée de Juda au temps de Roboam.

      2 "Speak to the children of Israel, and take of them rods, one for each fathers' house, of all their princes according to their fathers' houses, twelve rods: write every man's name on his rod.
      3 You shall write Aaron's name on the rod of Levi; for there shall be one rod for each head of their fathers' houses.

      16 When all Israel saw that the king didn't listen to them, the people answered the king, saying, "What portion have we in David? Neither do we have an inheritance in the son of Jesse. To your tents, Israel! Now see to your own house, David." So Israel departed to their tents.
      17 But as for the children of Israel who lived in the cities of Judah, Rehoboam reigned over them.
      18 Then king Rehoboam sent Adoram, who was over the men subject to forced labor; and all Israel stoned him to death with stones. King Rehoboam made speed to get him up to his chariot, to flee to Jerusalem.
      19 So Israel rebelled against the house of David to this day.
      20 It happened, when all Israel heard that Jeroboam was returned, that they sent and called him to the congregation, and made him king over all Israel: there was none who followed the house of David, but the tribe of Judah only.

      11 He fortified the strongholds, and put captains in them, and stores of food, and oil and wine.
      12 He put shields and spears in every city, and made them exceeding strong. Judah and Benjamin belonged to him.
      13 The priests and the Levites who were in all Israel resorted to him out of all their border.
      14 For the Levites left their suburbs and their possession, and came to Judah and Jerusalem: for Jeroboam and his sons cast them off, that they should not execute the priest's office to Yahweh;
      15 and he appointed him priests for the high places, and for the male goats, and for the calves which he had made.

      11 Nevertheless certain men of Asher and Manasseh and of Zebulun humbled themselves, and came to Jerusalem.
      12 Also on Judah came the hand of God to give them one heart, to do the commandment of the king and of the princes by the word of Yahweh.
      13 Many people assembled at Jerusalem to keep the feast of unleavened bread in the second month, a very great assembly.
      14 They arose and took away the altars that were in Jerusalem, and all the altars for incense took they away, and cast them into the brook Kidron.
      15 Then they killed the Passover on the fourteenth day of the second month: and the priests and the Levites were ashamed, and sanctified themselves, and brought burnt offerings into the house of Yahweh.
      16 They stood in their place after their order, according to the law of Moses the man of God: the priests sprinkled the blood which they received of the hand of the Levites.
      17 For there were many in the assembly who had not sanctified themselves: therefore the Levites were in charge of killing the Passovers for everyone who was not clean, to sanctify them to Yahweh.
      18 For a multitude of the people, even many of Ephraim and Manasseh, Issachar and Zebulun, had not cleansed themselves, yet they ate the Passover otherwise than it is written. For Hezekiah had prayed for them, saying, "May the good Yahweh pardon everyone

      16 You, son of man, take one stick, and write on it, For Judah, and for the children of Israel his companions: then take another stick, and write on it, For Joseph, the stick of Ephraim, and [for] all the house of Israel his companions:
