The Desire of Ages
The beholders are at first speechless with amazement. Then there
follows an inexpressible scene of rejoicing and thanksgiving. The
sisters receive their brother back to life as the gift of God, and with
joyful tears they brokenly express their thanks to the Saviour. But
while brother, sisters, and friends are rejoicing in this reunion, Jesus
withdraws from the scene. When they look for the Life-giver, He is
not to be found.
