Jesus did raise Lazarus, the son of the widow of Naim, and several others. Various Prophets of Israel and Apostles also raised the dead.

However, all the other instances were "only" (if it makes sense to say "only") the resuscitation of corpses. They were raised but still mortal; after a time, they aged and died again.

Jesus' resurrection was of an entirely different kind, since he was raised never to die again, with a preternatural body as different from His natural body, as the sprout of living green is different from the grain of wheat that was put into the ground.

Nope.

““See my hands and my feet, that it is I; touch me and know that a ghost does not have flesh and bones, as you see that I have.””...

Jesus was raised in His same natural body that He was crucified in, just like Lazarus.

The Shroud is a craftily designed hoax, with the head and body “photographed” by camera obscura at different times, thus the perspective shift in the two “photos”...
