Lazarus

What better way to kick off our Farewell Season (note: this is not an actual farewell) than to unpack a story about Lazarus in which even Jesus didn’t want to say farewell. In this resurrection amuse-bouche of a story, we revisit some familiar characters while exploring enneagram fours as biblical authors, Jewish burial practices, and how to contain your eye-rolling when your rabbi is full of riddles. Roll away that stone and strip off those burial clothes because this season premiere is going to make you come back for more! MENTIONS Main Biblical Text for the Episode: John 11:1-46 Biblical Tour Guide: Video of Modern Bethany So Many Marys: Mary and Matha | Mary of Bethany | Mary Meets an Angel | Mary Magdalene  Learn about the Gospels: Joseph, The Father of Jesus Bible Scholar Resources: Cultural Backgrounds Study Bible We’re Pro-Thomas Here: Season 10, Episode 2: Thomas Learn about grief from Steel Magnolias: Watch the Funeral Scene Here Embalming Corner: Learn about Jewish burial practices here What was that about Martha and a dragon?
