The Miracles of Jesus

It’s a captivating story Jesus interrupting a funeral cortège to bring the deceased back to life. It isn’t hard to picture the scene: the distraught mother weeping and wailing, supported by friends on either side; the confusion and unease as this stranger Jesus approaches the coffin, telling the mother not to cry; the shock and sheer incredulity of the crowd as the boy sits up in his coffin and talks; the boy himself, blinking in the daylight.
