There are two men named Lazarus in the New Testament, writes Canon Rob in today’s Olave Branch. The first was a close friend of Jesus and the brother of Mary and Martha. He’s the Lazarus who Jesus raised from the dead.

“The second Lazarus (and the lesser known one) is the one we find in tomorrow’s Gospel lesson (St. Luke 16.19). This Lazarus was desperately poor, covered in sores, and sat at the gate of a rich man, wishing he might eat even the crumbs that fell from the rich man’s table.

“While the first Lazarus is probably better known to Christians, the second Lazarus has been immortalized in music. Among the ancient prayers of the funeral liturgy is one known as In Paradisum:

‘May the Angels lead thee into paradise:
may the Martyrs receive thee at thy coming,
and lead thee into the holy city of Jerusalem.
May the choir of Angels receive thee,
and mayest thou have eternal rest with Lazarus,
who once was poor.’

“This prayer, in its Latin version, has been the subject of some extremely beautiful music, including Fauré’s Requiem. And so this second Lazarus continues to live on, accompanying countless souls to their final resting places.

“It’s a marvellous thought that, over the centuries, the poor beggar Lazarus has escorted kings and queens, the fabulously wealthy, and all manner of people to their final resting places. It’s a reminder that no matter who we are — rich or poor — we must all face the same God. And that our true treasure is not to be found here, but only in heaven.

“I hope you can worship with us tomorrow at 8:30 or 10:30 as we hear again the story of Lazarus and the Rich Man.”
