2
Och han förde mig fram runt omkring dem, och jag såg att de lågo där i stor myckenhet utöver dalen och jag såg att de voro alldeles förtorkade.
Hesekiel 37:2
Country
Generally in the Bible a "country" means a political subdivision ruled by a king, or sometimes a tribe with a territory ruled by a king or chieftain. Others are what we now call city-states, with surrounding farm areas. In almost all cases these countries were far smaller than our modern idea of countries, though Egypt and Assyria would be exceptions. Sometimes the word is used to refer to countryside, a wide area with no consideration of boundaries as when the twelve Israelites were sent to spy out the country.

John 16:5-7
5
But now I am going to him who sent me, and none of you asks me, 'Where are you going?'
6
But because I have told you these things, sorrow has filled your heart.
7
Nevertheless I tell you the truth: It is to your advantage that I go away, for if I don't go away, the Counselor won't come to you. But if I go, I will send him to you.
