Jesus Raises Jairus’s Daughter from the Dead (folio 82 verso), from a Mirror of Holiness (Mir’at al-quds) of Father Jerome Xavier

Jesus gestures toward the 12-year-old girl he has awakened from the dead, in a lesser-known miracle included in Father Jerome’s text. The elder of a synagogue, the girl’s father, named Jairus, had shown great faith in Jesus and had begged him to help his daughter; Jairus may be the figure dressed as a Jesuit in a dark cloak and tall matching cap behind Jesus. Jesus admonished the crowd to tell no one about the miracle, but people turn and gesture to one another, unable to keep from spreading the news.
