Which three disciples did Jesus take when he went to heal Jairus' daughter?

Peter, James and John (Mark 5:37).


What was the name of Jairus' daughter?

Oh honey, Jairus' daughter's name was so famous, it's practically engraved in history - it's like asking who the Queen of England is! Her name was... drumroll please... Talitha! So next time you're at a trivia night, you can thank me for this little gem of knowledge.

What did Jesus' closest disciples witnessed?

Jesus' closest disciples witnessed his miracles, teachings, crucifixion, and resurrection. They were with him throughout his ministry, witnessing his profound wisdom, healing powers, and the fulfillment of prophecies. Their experiences with Jesus shaped their faith and empowered them to spread his teachings after his death.


What woman did Jesus raise from the dead?

The bible doesn't provide this information. Scripture does tell of disciples that went to His tomb after He died. We are also told of Mary and another woman going there and finding the stone rolled away. There was also at least one angel there at the time. But scripture is silent on whether anyone, human or angelic that was present at the resurrection. And there is no recorded information that claims anyone was with Jesus when He rose from the dead as far as I know. I would guess that there were many angels there or nearby at the time Christ rose. I am sure that the Holy Spirit was present and the Father may have been there too, but scripture says nothing about this. There were two Roman soldiers sent to stand guard over the tomb in which Christ's body was laid. They were there from Friday night until Monday morning when the Angel came and rolled the stone away. In order to save themselves from being disciplined (deserting your post, in the Roman army, was a capital offense) they conspired with the Jewish authorities of the day to say that it was his disciples that came and stole the body.
