![]() ![]() As well as the miracle of his resurrection, it seems that God’s power had to propel him out to the entrance of the cave. So, he came out from the tomb like a ‘mummy’, with his movement greatly limited by the wrappings around his arms and legs. ![]() They prepared the dead by wrapping him around with clothes, and covering his face with a separate cloth. Jesus said to them, "Loose him, and let him go" (v44). “And he who had died came out bound hand and foot with grave-clothes, and his face was wrapped with a cloth. Was coming soon, when they also would be delivered and be carried into heaven, because of the redemption Messiah would make for them. Lazarus said: “Sorry guys, I’ve got to leave you now, I told you the Messiah was here and He is my friend!” Who else could raise someone from the dead after 4 days! So, Lazarus left Paradise with great excitement in his wake. No one had come to Paradise for so long, only to leave again. Suddenly they heard the voice of authority booming down, resounding into the spiritual world of Paradise: “Lazarus, come forth, come out of Hades into your body and then come out of the grave.” Lazarus had been with them four days. He is Jesus, the Messiah.” There would have been great expectation and anticipation. Lazarus, along with others who had died during Jesus’ ministry, would have told the saints there: “The Messiah has come, He is fulfilling all the prophecies, He has been healing the sick and raising the dead. If Jesus had not specified ‘Lazarus’ by name, all the dead would have been called to come out of their graves and one day that’s exactly what Jesus will do, for the raising of Lazarus is a prophetic picture of the resurrection of all believers (unbelievers will also be raised at a later time).Īnd at this time the spirit-soul of Lazarus would have been in Paradise (which was then under the earth) for four days, together with all the other Old- Testament saints, who had been waiting hundreds of years for the Messiah to come and take them to heaven. Literally it means: “Lazarus, come out!” He was commanded to come out of Paradise (in Hades) into his body, and then to come out of the grave. The prophetic significance of the Sign of Lazarus. When Jesus said: “Lazarus, come forth!” it was in a loud voice and with great authority.
