Bible Question: How many people were raised from the dead in the bible. I have found 1 Kings 17:17-24 (widow's son), 2 Kings 4:32-37 (Shunammite woman's son), 2 Kings 13:20-21 (man who touched Elisha's bones), Luke 7:11-15 (son of a widow), Luke 8:41-42, 49-55 (Jairus's daughter), John 11:1-44 (Lazarus), Matthew 27:52-53 (Holy people who had died, after Jesus died), Matthew 28:1-8 (Jesus), Acts 9:36-43 (Tabitha), and Acts 20:9-10 (Eutychus). The book I am studying says there were nine other people and the action project was to read about the other nine. Could this be a trick question or are there more than the 10 I mentioned? |

I'm not saying that people hadn't been brought back from the dead like Lazrus, but it wasn't until after Christ's resurrection that numorus individuals were resurrected. Paul taught that resurrection of the dead is the same as Christ's resurrection, meaning that we will be immortal and have a physical body as he did and this is a gift to all from Christ this is found in 1 Cor 15:22 "For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive." Later in the same chapter is spoken of the resurrection, v 42 "So also is the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in corruption; it is reaised in incorruption (meaning immortal bodies" |
