Jesus raised them from the dead to give glory to God and show his mighty power and love.
Jesus' death and resurrection however had a much greater purpose. John 3:16 says that "For God loved the world so much that he gave his only-begotten Son, in order that everyone exercising faith in him might not be destroyed but have everlasting life" so a lot depended on Jesus fulfilling this sacrifice. And he, and other prophets prophesied that it would happen.

Who other than Jesus raised people from the dead?
NO The Bible records a number of instances where people were raised to life. 1. Elijah raised to life the son of the widow who helped feed him during the famine. 2. The prophet Elisha raised the son of the Shunamite woman who had died. 3. Jesus raised the son of the widow at Nain. 4. Jesus raised Lazarus after his being dead for over three days. 5. Jesus raised Jairus' daughter. 6. Peter raised Dorcas from the dead. 7. Paul brought Eutychus back to life. All of these were witnessed by people other than those directly involved -particularly the New Testament ones (numbers 3-7). The New Testament ones were particularly public. The son of the widow at Nain was raised out of the coffin during the funeral procession. Many Jews had seen Lazarus buried and also saw him raised four days later. In relation to Lazarus, it is specifically mentioned that many people followed Jesus as a result of this miracle, so that Lazarus himself became a potential 'assassination target' for the jealous Jewish leaders. The difference between Jesus' rising from the dead and all the others is that there was no external human agent in Jesus' rising, and also in the fact that Jesus, unlike all the others, did not die again. Even further, Jesus predicted His own rising, while the others didn't. Jesus thus had power over death itself while the others needed to be raised by the power of God through either a prophet or apostle or through the act of God Himself in the case of those whom Jesus raised.
