Lazarus

The three most dramatic words in the Bible are “Lazarus, come forth!” Man’s perplexing question whether there is life after death was clearly answered when Jesus spoke those words. Lazarus wrapped in death bindings and witnessed by many people, stepped from his grave after four days. It is another proof of the power of Jesus.
Strangely, Lazarus is never again mentioned in scripture. Yet this miracle of our Lord erased all doubts of a second life. Why have religious scholars ignored a man so loved by Jesus? Did Lazarus simply retire to his home to be served by two obedient sisters? Why did Scripture writers fail to explain Lazarus’s activities after being given new life? This writer wondered at such questions. Lazarus simply vanished from Biblical history leaving one to wonder of his later years—but not before showing Jesus’ love is greater than the grave.
Questions tormented me and eventually led to search evasive answers to write Lazarus; a task of more than twenty-five years.
Critics might say any thoughts or conclusions in this fictional novel is speculations—but would they be right? This author never traveled to Bethany or studied at a religious seminary, yet strangely, the story has evidence of revealing historical facts. It is this writer’s hope readers will find renewed faith reading Lazarus.
Because Jesus called his friend Lazarus from the grave, is sufficient reason to justify this story.
