Raising Lazarus

I Am the Resurrection and the Life

Description

Lazarus of Bethany had been dead four days when Jesus arrived. After weeping at the tomb and praying to the Father, Jesus cried with a loud voice, 'Lazarus, come forth!' And the dead man emerged, still bound in grave clothes.

Key Verses

Now a certain man was sick, named Lazarus, of Bethany, the town of Mary and her sister Martha... Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live... Jesus therefore again groaning in himself cometh to the grave. It was a cave, and a stone lay upon it. Jesus said, Take ye away the stone... And when he thus had spoken, he cried with a loud voice, Lazarus, come forth. And he that was dead came forth, bound hand and foot with graveclothes.
