#LAZARUS DEFINITION ZIP#
Carol has penned 500 articles, and two books, Changing Zip Codes, and the award-winning debut novel, Lake Surrender, (inspired by her work with autistic students). Those who hated Jesus despised his story, but those who loved Him had resurrection hope in the form of a man named Lazarus.Ĭarol Stratton is a novelist, reporter and freelancer. Lazarus must have spent the rest of his life telling the story to all who would listen. What an honor for Lazarus to not only be resurrected from the dead but to also be the last major miracle Jesus ever preformed. (Jesus resurrected two other people but it was right after they had died). Most likely, Lazarus lived years after Jesus died to always carry the mark of a resurrected man. It was right after this miracle that these evil leaders plotted to kill Jesus, and as the Bible tells us, they were successful in crucifying Him. They were concerned that this man who did signs and wonders would cause problems with the Romans. This powerful incident upset the Pharisees and Chief Priests who felt they were losing a grip on their people. So, instead of racing to his friend’s bedside, he stayed two more days where He was before deciding to go to Bethany and awaken His friend. He had visited with Lazarus and his sisters in their home and broke bread with them.Īnd it may have been because of that very closeness that Jesus decided to use his relationship with Lazarus to showcase his power. Yes, Jesus loved all he came in contact with, but the words hints at how Jesus and Lazarus were true friends. When Jesus received the invitation, the messenger told Jesus that Lazarus, “He whom you love is ill.” This phrase, “He whom you love,” is significant. Martha, Mary’s sister was the one who complained to Jesus that her sister needed to help her in the kitchen ( Luke 10:38-42). His sister, Mary, would sit at the Master’s feet and listen to his words. Jesus had previously visited the three siblings and had enjoyed the family’s hospitality. Lazarus lived in a nearby town, Bethany, two miles southeast of Jerusalem and was the brother of Martha and Mary. Lazarus’s story appears in an account in John 11:1-44, when a messenger shows up where Jesus was ministering and requests Jesus come immediately to the home of a sick man. Who Was Lazarus? He was a friend to Jesus and a brother to Mary and Martha.
Let’s revisit the story to see how God helped him. The name, Lazarus, in Greek is Lazaros, which comes from the Hebrew, Eleazar, meaning “He, (God) has helped.
