Context of Ezekiel 39:13

11“On that day, I will give Gog a burial place there in Israel, the valley of the travelers east of the sea. It will block those who travel through, since they will bury Gog and all his multitude there. Then they will call it the valley of Hamon-Gog. 12The house of Israel will bury them for seven months, in order to cleanse the land. All the people of the land will bury them. It will be memorable for them, a day when I am glorified.” It is a declaration of Adonai. 14“Men will be continually set apart to travel through the land and bury the travelers remaining on the face of the land, in order to cleanse it. At the end of seven months, they will make their search. 15When they travel through the land, if any sees a man’s bone, he will set up a sign by it, until the buriers have buried it in the valley of Hamon-gog.
