Resurrection not resuscitation
We should not limit the resurrection. The encounters we will read about this week are there to show us that Jesus was not resuscitated. It is more. When Lazarus was raised from the dead, he went back to the same life. When Jairus’ daughter was raised, when the widow’s son was raised, it was the same. But when Jesus is raised, he does not go back in his human nature to the way things were before. He is not the same. Rather, He is glorified. So too can we be glorified by the power of Jesus.
