Just in time for the return of our students to campus, we celebrate the return of Lazarus from the dead …
“In the context of the Gospel of John, the narrative of the Raising of Lazarus forms "the climactic sign... Each of Jesus' seven signs illustrates some particular aspect of his divine authority, but this one exemplifies his power over the last and most irresistible enemy of humanity—death. For this reason it is given a prominent place in the gospel." (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lazarus_of_Bethany)
