Lazarus in John 12
LAZ-uh-rus
This person shows up in John 12:1: “Then six days before the Passover, Jesus came to Bethany, where Lazarus was, who had been dead, whom he raised from the dead.” The Bible is not talking about a sticker. It is talking about a real person in a real place.
John 12:1
“Then six days before the Passover, Jesus came to Bethany, where Lazarus was, who had been dead, whom he raised from the dead.”
