Luc 7:15 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 7:15

And he that was dead
That had been dead, (for he was now alive,) as it was a clear case to all his relations and friends, or they would never have brought him out to bury him:

sat up;
upon the bed, or bier: and began to speak; both which, his sitting up and speaking, were plain proofs of his being brought to life:

and he delivered him to his mother;
for whose sake he raised him from the dead, commiserating her case: wherefore, as Christ showed his power in raising the dead man, he discovered great humanity, kindness, and tenderness, in delivering him alive to his mother; which might be done after he came off of the bier, by taking him by the hand, and leading him to his mother, and giving him up into her arms: think what affecting scene this must be!

Luc 7:15 In-Context

13 Le Seigneur, l'ayant vue, fut ému de compassion pour elle, et lui dit: Ne pleure pas!

14 Il s'approcha, et toucha le cercueil. Ceux qui le portaient s'arrêtèrent. Il dit: Jeune homme, je te le dis, lève-toi!

15 Et le mort s'assit, et se mit à parler. Jésus le rendit à sa mère.

16 Tous furent saisis de crainte, et ils glorifiaient Dieu, disant: Un grand prophète a paru parmi nous, et Dieu a visité son peuple.

17 Cette parole sur Jésus se répandit dans toute la Judée et dans tout le pays d'alentour.
