{{quote|''And as I was prophesying, there was a noise, a rattling sound, and the bones came together, bone to bone. I looked, and tendons and flesh appeared on them and skin covered them,[...] and breath entered them, and they came to life and stood up on their feet - a vast army.'' |[[The Bible|Ezekiel 37:7-10]]}}

== Anime and Manga ==

* In ''[[Saint Seiya]]'', Hades brings back to life fallen Gold Saints of Athena granting them 12 hours to bring him her head. If they do so he may bring them back to life for real. {{spoiler|It turns out that they remained loyal to their Goddess nonetheless and only accepted Hades' deal to warn her about the upcoming Holy War while killing some members of Hades' army in the process. Once the 12 hours delay expired they disappeared to return to the Underworld (where they join again to fire a super [[Combined Energy Attack]]).}}
