What does the Bible say about Lazarus' resurrection?

Answered in 2 sources

The Bible recounts that Jesus raised Lazarus from the dead, demonstrating His authority over death and signaling the greater spiritual resurrection for believers.

The account of Lazarus' resurrection in John 11 showcases Jesus' power over both physical and spiritual death. When Jesus calls out, 'Lazarus, come forth,' He is not only performing a miraculous act but also illustrating His role as the giver of life. This event serves as a foreshadowing of the ultimate resurrection believers will experience – a spiritual resurrection where those dead in trespasses and sins are made alive in Christ. The many Jews who witnessed this miracle and believed on Him represent those who’ve experienced this spiritual resurrection, transitioning from death to life through faith (John 11:43-45).
