or like him who passed by a town collapsed on its foundations. he said how can god revive this after its demise? thereupon god caused him to die for a hundred years and then resurrected him. he said for how long have you tarried? he said i have tarried for a day or part of a day. he said no. you have tarried for a hundred years. now look at your food and your drink—it has not spoiled—and look at your donkey. we will make you a wonder for mankind. and look at the bones how we arrange them and then clothe them with flesh. so when it became clear to him he said i know that god has power over all things.
