Raise dead is the weakest of a group of powerful spells that can resurrect a dead creature. The raise dead spell works on a single creature who has been dead for a limited number of days. The target's soul must be willing and free to return from the afterlife, and the spell can be cast only on a corpse that formerly possessed a soul; constructs, elementals, outsiders, and undead cannot be raised.123
