Life of Jesus | IndexJesus Raises the Dead Son at Nain
Lk 7:11-17
Luke 7:11-17
Now it happened, the day after, that He went into a city called Nain; and many
of His disciples went with Him, and a large crowd.
And when He came near the gate of the city, behold, 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.
When the Lord saw her, He had compassion on her and said to her, "Do not weep."
Then He came and touched the open coffin, and those who carried him stood
still. And He said, "Young man, I say to you, arise."
So he who was dead sat up and began to speak. And He presented him to his
mother.
Then fear came upon all, and they glorified God, saying, "A great prophet has
risen up among us"; and, "God has visited His people."
And this report about Him went throughout all Judea and all the surrounding
region.
