Lazaros of Bethany (1st
century)
Lazaros,
the brother of Martha and Mary, was raised from the dead by
Jesus Christ (John 11:1-44). After Christ's Resurrection,
Lazaros was placed in a leaky boat with his sisters, by the
Jews at Jaffa, and they all landed safely at Cyprus. Lazaros
became Bishop in Cyprus and died peacefully thirty years
later. His relics were translated to Constantinople in 890
AD.
