(by Dan Peterson sic et non blog)
If it’s accurately reported, I can think of absolutely no natural explanation for what happened. But why would there be divine intervention in such a matter, when other cases seem more pressing and more grave? I don’t know. Perhaps we simply need little reminders from time to time, non-coercive reminders that help us to recall that there is more to life than naturalism and the mundane. (I’ve had a few, personally.) Perhaps it was to provide a sign to those who received it and to those of us who read about it generations later, that the work of redeeming the dead is of supreme importance. I can only speculate. But, again, if the account is true, it’s extraordinarily significant.
