Name an example of a restoration of life miracle.

• A. Healing a leper.
• B. Walking on water.
• C. Calming the storm.
• D. Lazarus, the widow's son at Nain, and Jairus' daughter.

Answer: (D)

Restoration of life miracles involve bringing someone back to life after death, showing authority over death itself rather than merely healing illness or controlling nature. The events that best illustrate this are Jesus raising Lazarus, the widow’s son at Nain, and Jairus’ daughter. Each of these stories explicitly ends in a death being reversed and a living person restored, highlighting a unique category of miracle.

Healing a leper is about curing disease, not reversing death. Walking on water and calming the storm are nature miracles, demonstrating control over the elements, not bringing someone back from the dead. Therefore, the example that truly fits the category of restoring life is the trio of Lazarus, the widow’s son at Nain, and Jairus’ daughter.
