ACC ~ Acts 19 v12

THE GREATEST PROOF OF THE RESURRECTION. CHRYSOSTOM: What Christ is saying is this, “Whoever believes in me will, in my name, do greater signs than I have done.” And these are the greater signs that they did: their shadows raised the dead. Thus was the power of Christ especially proclaimed, since it was not so marvelous that he performed miracles while living, as it was that, when he had died, others were able to do greater than [Christ] in his own name. This itself was the most irrefutable demonstration of the resurrection. He would not, even had he been seen, have been believed to such an extent, since they could have said that he was a phantasm, but should someone see greater signs occur from the mere mention of his name—even when he was among humankind in the flesh—that one, unless terribly shameless, would not have refused to believe.
