Jesus Raises a Widow's Son

"Now it happened, the day after, that He [Jesus] 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 '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."
Luke 7:11-15

Jesus told the mother not to weep because He intended on raising her son back to life.

Jesus touched the coffin, even though it would have been considered ceremonially unclean.
It wasn't and idle touch, because He intended on raising the young man from death.

Jesus spoke a word of command when He said, "Young man, I say to you, arise."
