in Joppa: A woman healed
While Peter
was at Lydda, a well-beloved Christian woman, (“a disciple,” v. 36) in Joppa,
by the name of Dorcas . . . died. The story of Dorcas is reminiscent of earlier
raisings from the dead, such as Elijah’s raising of the son of the widow of
Zarephath (1 Ki. 17:17-24) and the raising of the Shunammite woman’s son by
Elisha (2 Ki. 4:32-37), both of which are in turn echoed in the story of the
widow’s son, who was raised by Jesus (Lk. 7:11-17). The raising which most
closely corresponds the Dorcas’ story, however, is to be found in Jesus’
raising of Jarius’ daughter (Lk. 8:49-56; Mk. 5:35-43).
