 Young Man, Get Up!


Luke 7:11-17

Key Verse 7:14


1. Verses 11 and 12 describe two processions converging from two opposite directions - one led by Jesus and the other by a coffin. What does the name "Jesus" mean? What does the coffin remind us of? In what respect are the two processions different? 


2. Put yourself in the shoes of the woman described in verse 12, and consider the way the Lord related himself to her (v13).  What do the following expressions tell us about the Lord? 1) …the Lord 'saw' her; 2) his heart went out to her; and 3) he said, "Don't cry." 


3. Think about what Jesus did in verse 14a. What do the following statements tell us about Jesus and the life that follows him? 1) …he went up and 'touched' the coffin; and 2) those carrying it stood still. 


4. Consider what Jesus said to the dead man inside the coffin (v14b). What do the following words of Jesus mean to you? 1) Young man; 2) I say to you; and 3) get up! 


5. Verses 15-17 describe what Jesus did for the dead man and his mother, and the way people responded to the miracle. What message(s) does this miracle convey to the young people of this generation? To the parents? To the people of our day in general?
