The raising of the widow of Zarephath's son is a miracle of the prophet Elijah recorded in the Hebrew Bible, 1 Kings 17. Victor H. Matthews suggests that the woman "uses sarcasm which is designed to shame the prophet for being the cause of her son's death." In raising her son from the dead, Elijah "regains his honor and his status." According to Saint Jerome, the widow's son grew up to be prophet Jonah. Commentators have noted verbal parallels with the raising of the son of the widow of Nain in the Gospel of Luke.〔The People's New Testament Commentary - M. Eugene Boring, Fred B. Craddock - 2004 Page 204 "7:11-17 RAISING THE WIDOW'S SON This story is only in Luke, but it has many points of contact with the story of Elijah's raising the widow of Zarephath's son (1 Kgs. 17:8-24), including such verbatim parallels as "he gave him to his mother" ..."〕 The miracle is represented in the Dura synagogue murals.〔Jacob Neusner Judaism in late antiquity - Page 115 Jonathan A.
