Miracles of Jesus: Gospel Events, Names & References
The prompt asks for a Gospel event, not only a broad category such as healing or resurrection. Jairus' daughter, Lazarus and the widow of Nain's son involve different people and passages. The entries below preserve those distinctions so you can name a specific account.
Understand the scope
- The accepted set is representative, not an exhaustive count of every miracle under every counting method.
- Different descriptions of one event can be aliases; similar outcomes involving different people do not automatically make one event.
