The Gospels of Luke are part of the synoptic gospels that portray the relationship in the gospels of Matthew and Mark, whose content is found to display many similarities in comparison to Luke. Matthew and Luke share a large amount of material that is not found in Mark, while Luke also has a many stories not found in either. Luke is credited with the Acts of the Apostle also. History is unclear whether it is the same Luke that has written both the Acts and the Gospels or even if it was a Luke. As with the Bible, there are some things that we may or may not know for certain but this does not alter the message of the Good News as credited by Luke.

He is the Man who, because He never sinned, truly does have dominion over heaven and earth (Genesis 1:26-28). The animals and the fish obey God, all of nature including the wind and the sea. Jesus makes sick people better and no matter what situation Luke portrays, Jesus is a leader, with the ill, with the dying, and with the nature such as the fig trees.

The people hearing this must have been amazed not only at the miracle of the raising of the dead girl but, also Jesus’s concern for her comfort and that He wanted to give her something to
