7 risen from the dead in Scripture leading up to Christ’s resurrection… “It is fitting to record that we have seven accounts of resurrection from the dead before that of the Lord. Of these the first is that of the son of the widow of Sarepta (III Kings xvii), the second of the son of the Sunamitess (IV Kings iv), third that caused by the remains of Eliseus (IV Kings xiii), the fourth this of Naim, the fifth that of the daughter of the ruler of the Synagogue, the sixth that of Lazarus, the seventh that which took place at the passion of Christ: for “many bodies of the saints that had slept arose (Mt. xxvii. 52). The eighth was Christ’s, Who, free of death, lived on as a sign that the general resurrection, which is to come in the eighth age, shall not be annulled by death, but shall remain and shall not be undone.” (St. Ambrose -- from the Catena Aurea for the 15th Sunday after Pentecost)
