Jesus Raises a Widow’s Son (LUK 7:11-17)

[7:11] Soon afterward he went to a town called Nain, and his disciples and a great crowd went with him.

[7:12] As he drew near to the gate of the town, behold, a man who had died was being carried out, the only son of his mother, and she was a widow, and a considerable crowd from the town was with her.

[7:13] And when the Lord saw her, he had compassion on her and said to her, “Do not weep.”

[7:14] Then he came up and touched the bier, and the bearers stood still. And he said, “Young man, I say to you, arise.”

[7:15] And the dead man sat up and began to speak, and Jesus gave him to his mother.

[7:16] Fear seized them all, and they glorified God, saying, “A great prophet has arisen among us!” and “God has visited his people!”

[7:17] And this report about him spread through the whole of Judea and all the surrounding country.
