The "One king" just has to be...
Response: The two kingdoms mentioned in Ezekiel 37:21are the Northern one (Ephraim) and the Southern one (Judah) who were separated at the the time of Rechavam the son of Solomon's reign. In context, it is clear that this messianic prophecy is speaking of the reunification of the 12 Tribes that have been divided ever since. The Moshiach (Messiah) will accomplish this feat - something Jesus never did! Incidentally, it is a major component of Mormon theology to envision a unification of the Priestly caste (e.g Yehudah, although we know the Kohein came from the tribe of Levi) with the Nations of the World (Ephraim) and that is why they are so interested in converting and hooking up with Jews. Mormons sincerely believe that they are the lost tribe of Ephraim!
