Saint Lazarus was a disciple and dear friend of Jesus and the brother of Martha and Mary. They were residents of Bethany, a village near Jerusalem during the time of Christ's ministry. Lazarus is famously known for being raised from the dead by Jesus after being in the tomb for four days. When Jesus went to Lazarus’s tomb, he said “Lazarus come forth.” and Lazarus emerged from the tomb wearing his burial cloths.
