New Testament
Eutychus
A young man who fell from a third-story window while listening to Paul preach in Troas.
Eutychus is mentioned only in Acts 20:9-12 as a young man who fell asleep during Paul's lengthy sermon and plummeted from a third-story window. He was taken up dead, but Paul embraced him and restored him to life through God's power. This event serves as a testament to the apostolic authority of Paul and the miraculous nature of the early church's ministry.
