Bible Note: The term "beloved disciple" does not occur in the Fourth Gospel until after the resurrection of Lazarus. In 11:3 Lazarus is called "he whom you love." If Lazarus is the "beloved disciple" then the statement in the chapter 21:22-23 of the Fourth Gospel makes sense and is relevent to your question whether 'lazarus is still alive physically until the Lord comes.' John 21 22 Jesus said to him, "If I want him to remain until I come, what is that to you? You follow Me!" 23 Therefore this saying went out among the brethren that that disciple would not die; yet Jesus did not say to him that he would not die, but only, "If I want him to remain until I come, what is that to you?" |
