our Lord Jesus Christ set forth, but He raised others also, that we
might at any rate believe more numerous instances. He raised the
young man again, moved by the tears of his widowed mother, when He came
and touched the bier, and said: “Young man, I say unto
thee, arise, and he that was dead sat up and began to
speak.” S. Luke xiv. 7, 8. As soon as
he heard he forthwith sat up, he forthwith spake. The working of
power, then, is one thing, the order of nature is another.
