The Raising of Lazarus | High Quality Serigraph icon on wood | Made in Greece | Size: 12" x 9,5"

The Gospel tells about the town of Bethany, where Lazarus and his two sisters, Martha and Mary, lived. At one point, Lazarus got seriously ill, and his sisters decided to ask Jesus for help. The Son of the Lord arrived on the fourth day after the death of Lazarus, who was already buried in the cave. There was no hope of salvation for the sisters. A terrible scent of death stood near the cave, meaning that the body of their beloved brother was already decaying. Nevertheless, Jesus commanded to take away the stone obstructing the entrance, looked into the cave, and said loudly, “Lazarus! Come forth!” And indeed, Lazarus appeared from the cave, wrapped with linen strips like a baby, and those present at the miracle of Resurrection leaned down before Christ.
