  • Thru the Bible: the Raising of Lazarus [John 11]
    Thru the Bible: The Raising of Lazarus [John 11] Introduction (John 11:1-57): The story of the raising of Lazarus is the final and climactic “sign” in the first half of the Gospel (“Book of Signs”) and contains the fifth “I am” statement, “I am the resurrection and the life” (11:25). After this story, Jesus’ public ministry is completed, with no further public discourses. From now on, John the gospel writer will focus on the culminating events and private teaching of Jesus’ final week, leading up to his third and final Passover Festival in Jerusalem. While the Synoptic Gospels include the raising of Jairus’ daughter (Mt. and Mk.) and the widow of Nain’s son (Lk.), only John records this astonishing story of Jesus raising someone already entombed for four days. Jesus and the Bethany Family (11:1-6): The sisters Mary and Martha appear to be known to the readers, perhaps from the story in Luke 10:38-42 of Jesus teaching in their home, but their brother Lazarus is only mentioned in John’s Gospel. This family appears to be very special to Jesus, and their home in Bethany (near Jerusalem) may have been a regular place of hospitality for Jesus and his disciples when in the region. Leading up to our chapter, in 10:40-42, John tells us that when Jesus heard the news of Lazarus’ illness, he was teaching across the Jordan River, in the place where John the Baptist had been preaching, which is identified as a different Bethany in John 1:28.

Buses or cars are necessary for most of the routes, but many of them also include sections that can be done on foot. The routes are planned for those who wish to visit lesser-known sites that still maintain the flavor of the country before the development boom of the last 100 years.

  • Ecumenical Accompaniment Programme in Palestine and Israel
    ECUMENICAL ACCOMPANIMENT PROGRAMME IN PALESTINE AND ISRAEL Dr. Jenny Bywaters Newsletter 3 April 4th 2013 My first newsletter mentioned that the EAPPI team here in Jerusalem regularly monitors checkpoints; it is time to describe in more detail the many barriers to movement and access that Palestinian people suffer under the occupation. Checkpoints are located within the Separation Barrier which Israel has constructed on the basis that it is necessary for her security. Some sections consist of a high concrete wall, while others are composed of fences with electronic monitoring. The Qalandiya checkpoint, which we monitor from 4.30 am to 7.30 am on Sundays, Tuesdays and Thursdays, is in the wall separating Ramallah in the West Bank from Jerusalem. Every day thousands of Palestinians who live in and around Ramallah have to pass through this checkpoint to go to work, school, college or medical facilities in Jerusalem. Those going on foot enter first a large draughty shed, where they join one of the three caged queues. When I say caged, I mean that there are bars on each side so that people are forced into single file, and bars overhead. At the front of each queue is a turnstile which is released intermittently to allow a few people through. Once through the turnstile, they have to go to one of five lanes (though all five are not always open) where again they have to wait for a turnstile to let them pass into a booth. Here they have to put bags through an airport-style X-ray and step through a metal detector.

  • LAZARUS SATURDAY Q H R
    LAZARUS SATURDAY We commemorated the raising of Lazarus with Divine Liturgy on Saturday morning On the Saturday before Holy Week, the Orthodox Church commemorates a major feast of the year, the miracle of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ when he raised Lazarus from the dead after he had lain in the grave four days. Here, at the end of Great Lent and the forty days of fasting and penitence, the Church combines this celebration with that of Palm Sunday. In triumph and joy the Church bears witness to the power of Christ over death and exalts Him as King before entering the most solemn week of the year, one that leads the faithful in remembrance of His suffering and death and concludes with the great and glorious Feast of Pascha. q h r Visible triumphs are few in the earthly life of our Lord Jesus Christ. He preached a kingdom “not of this world.” At His nativity in the flesh there was “no room at the inn.” For nearly thirty years, while He grew “in wisdom and in stature, and in favor with God and man” (Luke 2:52), He lived in obscurity as “the son of Mary.” When He appeared from Nazareth to begin His public ministry, one of the first to hear of Him asked: “Can anything good come out of Nazareth?” (John I :46). In the end He was crucified between two thieves and laid to rest in the tomb of another man. Two brief days stand out as sharp exceptions to the above—days of clearly observable triumph.
