Acts 20:7-12

⁷And on the first of the Sabbaths, the disciples having been assembled to break bread, being about to depart on the morrow, Paul reasoned to them. And he continued his speech until midnight. ⁸And there were many lights in the upper room where they were assembled. ⁹And a certain young man named Eutychus was sitting on the window sill, Paul reasoning for a longer time, being overborne by sleep, he fell down from the third floor, and was taken up dead. ¹⁰And Paul went down and fell on him, and embracing him said, Do not be terrified, for his soul is in him. ¹¹And going up, and breaking bread, and tasting, and conversing over a long time, until daybreak, he went out thus. ¹²And they brought the young man alive, and were not a little comforted.

Insights

Paul was speaking to fellow disciples so there was very little or perhaps no unbelief in the room. Hence he put no one out, as we have seen in other healing accounts.
The raising from the dead is almost taken as a normal expectation. We need to expect big things from our Christian faith. Jesus has paid for it all! We should not limit what God can do.
Paul both embraced him and spoke to the people, perhaps to reassure them that his life was still in him. Actions of faith are always required in everything that we do.
Note: This is during Paul's third missionary journey while he dwelt in Troas, Acts 18:23 .
