The answer is: False

John 11 - Lazarus was raised from the dead, not cured of blindness

Great question! It’s easy to mix up the miracles in the Bible because there are so many miraculous stories to dig into. Lazarus, who lived in Bethany, is famous not because he had a visual impairment, but because he faced an incredible situation: he died! In the Gospel of John, Jesus receives word that Lazarus is sick, but instead of rushing to his side, He waits. By the time Jesus arrives, Lazarus has already been buried for four days.

Now this miracle is significant not just because of the dramatic raising from the dead, but also because Jesus exhibits deep empathy—He weeps over Lazarus's death. This emotional moment shows us that spiritual power doesn’t negate human feelings. It's fascinating to note that the Saturdays before Easter are sometimes called "Lazarus Saturday" in some traditions, celebrating this remarkable event.

Parallel stories are found in other parts of the Gospel, like when Jesus healed the blind man in John 9. That event raised questions about sin and suffering that still echo in theological debates today. Enigmatic figures, like those encountered by Jesus, compel humans to inquire and grasp the mystery of life and death beyond mere facts. The raising of Lazarus isn’t just about the physical act of raising someone from the grave; it serves as a powerful testament to the belief in eternal life and transcendence!
