Theland, A thesis? When a quick google reveals the prophecy you’re talking about and explains it in a few lines there's really no call for such drama!
//In his vision the prophet [Ezekiel] sees himself standing in the valley full of dry human bones. He is commanded to carry a prophecy. Before him the bones connect into human figures, then the bones become covered with tendon tissues, flesh and skin. Then God reveals the bones to the prophet as the People of Israel in exile and commands the Prophet to carry another prophecy in order to revitalize these human figures, to resurrect them and to bring them to the Land of Israel.//

So this is about the Jews returning to Israel in 1948. Okay, but if you really think about it reason dictates that fulfillment of this prophecy - having been a cherished ambition across the centuries and continually publicised - came to fruition not by the mighty hand of God but by the hand of modern day politicians. Nothing mysterious about it. Jesus fulfilled a prophecy by riding into Jerusalem on a donkey – but you can bet your boots his chosen mode of arrival was directly related to his knowledge of Zechariah’s ramblings from years before. Wanting to attribute experiences to the divine, as you do Theland, doesn’t render those experiences divine.

I guess prophecies are only meaningful if the contents of them were unknown before the prophecy was fulfilled. Otherwise you always have the interesting question: would the prophecy have come true if no-one had known about it?
So, would Jesus have rode in to the city on a donkey had he not known of Zechariah? Would Israel have been created anew in the 20th Century regardless of ancient scriptures? Would Voldemort have tried to kill Harry Potter, thus creating his own worst enemy and giving Potter the powers to ultimately destroy him, had he never heard the prophecy that a baby soon to be born who would have the power to defeat him?
And so on.
