La Raising the Widow's Son at Nain Narrative approach to the story of Luke 7:11-17

Abstract

The miracle of "Raising the Widow's Son at Nain", is a gripping tale where actors appear and disappear from the stage play as if it were a “real work”. Jesus with the widow, are key players in this beautiful 'work'. The boy brought back to life is the maximum expression of the love of God that "reveals himself to his people". All those present praising the God of the promises, is the summit and the meaning of the presence of the true gift of the creator: “Life”. A narrative look at Lucas narration makes us probe the mysterious inner world of the author of the Gospel and its relationship with the God of Jesus.
