And he that was dead sat up, and began to speak. And he delivered him to his mother.
All Commentaries on Luke 7:15 Go To Luke 7
Cornelius a Lapide
AD 1637
And he that was dead sat up and began to speak. Sat up, raised himself up into a sitting posture, and so returned to life; for to sit up and to begin to speak are sure signs of returning animation.
And He delivered him to his mother, i.e. He took him by the hand and placed him on his feet, then led him to his mother. Behold thy son! Take him home with thee, that thou mayest rejoice over him, and that he may render thee true filial obedience.
