Pikkutyttö, Arise

Jesus stands in the house of Jairus, facing the young girl He has just raised from death. The child is upright in a white garment, looking to Christ with renewed life, while her parents and the attending disciples witness the miracle with reverent astonishment. The open window and household table place the event inside a private home, emphasizing that Christ’s authority reaches even into the grief of a family room.

The artwork reflects the Gospel account in which Jesus takes the girl by the hand and commands, “Little girl, arise.” Her restoration reveals the Messiah’s power over death and His compassion for desperate parents. This biblical scene is well suited for teaching on faith, resurrection hope, healing ministry, children’s lessons, and the life-giving authority of Christ.
