Luke 7:11-21

11 Soon afterward, Jesus went to a city called Nain. His disciples and a large crowd went with him.
12 As he came near the entrance to the city, he met a funeral procession. The dead man was a widow's only child. A large crowd from the city was with her.
13 When the Lord saw her, he felt sorry for her. He said to her, "Don't cry."
14 He went up to the open coffin, took hold of it, and the men who were carrying it stopped. He said, "Young man, I'm telling you to come back to life!"
15 The dead man sat up and began to talk, and Jesus gave him back to his mother.
16 Everyone was struck with fear and praised God. They said, "A great prophet has appeared among us," and "God has taken care of his people."
17 This news about Jesus spread throughout Judea and the surrounding region.
18 John's disciples told him about all these things. Then John called two of his disciples
19 and sent them to ask the Lord, "Are you the one who is coming, or should we look for someone else?"
20 The men came to Jesus and said, "John the Baptizer sent us to ask you, 'Are you the one who is coming, or should we look for someone else?'"
21 At that time Jesus was curing many people who had diseases, sicknesses, and evil spirits. Also, he was giving back sight to many who were blind.
