The hope of Moses that all God’s People would be prophets (Numbers 11:29) becomes a promise Joel 2. Certain things need be in place for the Spirit of God to rest upon His people. The Holy Spirit must dwell in a Holy Temple, so Ezekiel 36 describes a New Covenant were God’s people are called, gathered, cleansed, clothed, and consecrated. This outpouring of the Spirit could not happen until after the Crucifixion, Resurrection, and Ascension of Jesus.
