Ed Illarraza is raised from the dead on Easter Morning
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm . . . Look at the hint of “Lazarus” in Ed Illarraza’s name.
I am reminded of how Lazarus was Raised from the Dead by Jesus
Lazarus, come forth. And with those words Jesus raised Lazarus from the dead. The miracle of Jesus raising Lazarus from the dead is arguably the preeminent public miracle of Jesus’ earthly ministry. So note the following key facts about that event that are recorded in the 11th and 12th chapter of the fourth gospel:
The miracle of Jesus raising Lazarus from the dead was done in front of witnesses; the Jews that showed up to mourn the death of Lazarus saw Jesus raise Lazarus from the dead and some of them went and reported this miracle to the Pharisees
he cried with a loud voice, Lazarus, come forth. And he that was dead came forth Then many of the Jews
which came to Mary, and had seen the things which Jesus did, believed on him. But some of them went their ways to the Pharisees, and told them what things Jesus had done (11:43-46)
