Hija de Jairus

Jesus kneels beside the bed of Jairus' daughter, speaking gently as the little girl sits alive again among her rejoicing family. Jairus and his wife gather close with astonished joy, while another young woman stands in the doorway holding flowers, witnessing the wonder inside the home. The child’s toy rests on the blanket, emphasizing the tenderness of a household restored from grief to life.

The scene portrays the Gospel account in which Jesus enters the ruler’s house, takes the dead girl by the hand, and commands her to rise. His authority over death is shown not through spectacle, but through compassionate nearness. The miracle proclaims that Christ is Lord over sickness, fear, and the finality of the grave, making this artwork meaningful for children’s ministry, Sunday school lessons, healing themes, and teaching the resurrection hope found in the ministry of Jesus.
