Luke 7:10-17
7:10 So
when those who had been sent returned to the house, they found the slave
well.
Raising a Widow’s Son
7:11 Soon afterward Jesus went to a town called Nain, and his disciples and a large crowd went with him.
7:12 As he approached the town gate, a man who had died was being carried out, the only son of his mother (who was a widow), and a large crowd from the town was with her.
7:13 When the Lord saw her, he had compassion for her and said to her, “Do not weep.”
7:14 Then he came up and touched the bier, and those who carried it stood still. He said, “Young man, I say to you, get up!”
7:15 So the dead man sat up and began to speak, and Jesus gave him back to his mother.
7:16 Fear seized them all, and they began to glorify God, saying, “A great prophet has appeared among us!” and “God has come to help his people!”
7:17 This report about Jesus circulated throughout Judea and all the surrounding country.
Luke 7:21-23
7:21 At that very time
Jesus
cured many people of diseases, sicknesses,
and evil spirits, and granted
sight to many who were blind.
7:22 So
he answered them,
“Go tell
John what you have seen and heard:
The blind see, the lame walk, lepers are cleansed, the
deaf hear, the dead are raised, the poor have good news proclaimed to them.
7:23 Blessed is anyone
who takes no offense at me.”
