There are 8 resurrections described in the Bible. A widow’s son. The prophet Elijah resurrected the young son of a widow who lived in Zarephath, north of Israel. -1 Kings 17:17-24. A Shunammite boy Elijah’s successor, the prophet Elisha, resurrected a boy in the town of Shunem and restored him to his parents. -2 Kings 4:32-37. A man in a burial place. The corpse of a man who had recently died was hastily left in the same burial place where Elisha’s bones lay. When the man’s body touched the prophet’s bones, the man was resurrected. -2 Kings 13:20, 21. The son of the widow of Nain. Jesus interrupted a burial procession outside Nain to resurrect a young man and restore him to his grieving mother. -Luke 7:11-15. Jairus’ daughter. Jairus, an officer of the synagogue, implored Jesus to help his sick daughter. Jesus resurrected her shortly after she died. -Luke 8:41, 42, 49-56. Lazarus. Jesus’ dear friend Lazarus was dead for four days when Jesus resurrected him before a number of onlookers. -John 11:38-44. Dorcas. The apostle Peter resurrected this beloved woman, who was known for her many acts of kindness. -Acts 9:36-42. Eutychus. The young man Eutychus died when he fell from a high window; the apostle Paul raised him back to life. -Acts 20:7-12. I'm not aware of any examples of reincarnation or merging with a godhead occurring.

All the had to do was take their dead relatives or friends and touch Elishas's bones with the body and they would be resurrected. They should have stored those bones.
