'Raises' in the Bible

Just as the Father raises the dead and gives them life [and allows them to live on], even so the Son also gives life to whom He wishes.

Why is it thought incredible by [any of] you that God raises the dead?

Indeed, we felt within ourselves that we had received the sentence of death [and were convinced that we would die, but this happened] so that we would not trust in ourselves, but in God who raises the dead.
