What first century Jews were claimed to have risen from the dead?
score:4
Jesus raised the daughter of Jarius (a synagogue ruler). By the time Jesus got to the house of Jarius, his daughter had died:
"He took her by the hand and said to her, "Talitha koum!" (which means "Little girl, I say to you, get up!"). Immediately the girl stood up and walked around (she was twelve years old). At this they were completely astonished" (Mark 6:41-42).
Thunderforge mentioned an incident (in Acts 20:7-12) where a young man called Eutychus was listening to Paul preach in an upstairs room late at night:
Seated in a window was a young man named Eutychus, who was sinkinginto a deep sleep as Paul talked on andon. When he was sound asleep, he fell to the ground from the third storey and was picked up dead. Paul went down, threw himself on the young man and put his arms around him. "Don't be alarmed," he said. "He's alive!" Then he went upstairs again... The people took the young man home alive and were greatly comforted."
There is also an incident in Acts 9:36-43 where Peter raised Tabitha, a disciple, from the dead.
I am unaware of any reference in the Bible to John the Baptist being resurrected. Where did that idea come from?
Of course, the difference between the resurrection of Jesus and any other person is that Jesus still lives, whereas Lazarus and the daughter of Jarius died later. Likewise with the dead who came to life after the resurrection of Jesus (Matthew 27:52-53), as mentioned by D J Clayworth.
