This man known as Simon the leper, knew of
and had affection for Mary, Martha and Lazarus.
Some have wondered if he could have been their
father. They all knew him. Martha had been in
charge of the banquet.

Lazarus sat at the table. His miracle made him
as interesting to the people as Jesus was. We
can about imagine the questions he was asked
regarding what it was like on the other side of
life. They must have had the same questions
for Jesus.
