Luke 7:12-15 ▼

12 Now as He approached the city gate, a dead man was being carried out—the only son of his mother, and she was a widow. And a large crowd from the city was with her [in the funeral procession].

13 When the Lord saw her, He felt [great] compassion for her, and said to her, “Do not weep.”

14 And He came up and touched the bier [on which the body rested], and the pallbearers stood still. And He said, “Young man, I say to you, arise [from death]!”

15 The man who was dead sat up and began to speak. And Jesus gave him back to his mother.
