Lazarus

Lazarus of Bethany was a man who was brought back to life by Jesus Christ. He is known as the Four-Days Dead in the Eastern Orthodox Church. The story of his resurrection is one of the most famous in the Bible, and it is often used to illustrate the power of Jesus over death. Lazarus was a close friend of Jesus, and he lived in the town of Bethany with his sisters Mary and Martha. When he became ill, Jesus went to visit him. The Bible says that Jesus loved Lazarus very much, and he was deeply saddened when he died. After Lazarus had been dead for four days, Jesus went to his tomb and called out his name. Lazarus came out of the tomb, alive and well. This miracle amazed the people who witnessed it, and it showed them that Jesus had the power to overcome death. The story of Lazarus' resurrection is a reminder that death is not the end. Jesus has the power to give us new life, even after we have died.
