| Jun 8, 2018 at 9:39 | comment | added | frIT | It is easy to conflate the various accounts of the anointing of Jesus (due to some similarities e.g. the host of the meal in 3 of the accounts being named Simon - a common name). Again, the Wikipedia article regarding these anointings contains a concise summary of similarities but also differences, which may be a good starting point. The main point being that the anointing by the unnamed "sinful woman" occurs while Jesus ministers in the Galilee town of Nain, while the other accounts are placed in Bethany close to Jerusalem. | |

| Jun 7, 2018 at 14:15 | comment | added | John Coleman | It makes no sense to call someone "reluctant" to do something if they have never considered doing it. The title of your question seems to make a false assumption. "Most Christians" have never considered your speculative reading. It isn't as if they were presented with it and rejected it since it "makes them uncomfortable." | |

| Jun 7, 2018 at 10:53 | comment | added | curiousdannii♦ | @NigelJ I don't think anyone is suggesting Luke's story happened after John's - the question is about the argument that they're describing the same death. | |
| Jun 7, 2018 at 10:26 | comment | added | Matt Gutting | @NigelJ your answer is better than mine. If you post yours as a formal answer I will remove mine in the interest of quality. | |
| Jun 7, 2018 at 3:51 | comment | added | Zephyr | There isn't a single reason to think they are the same Lazarus. Other than name, there is no link. Would you consider your neighbor John to be John the Apostle? | |
| Jun 7, 2018 at 3:07 | comment | added | Nigel J | You are incorrect regarding identification. One Lazarus is identified as the brother of Mary and Martha who lived in Bethany. The other Lazarus is identified as the poor beggar who sat every day at the gate of a rich man and who, subsequently died in that state. To say that Lazarus of Bethany, after being raised from the dead by Jesus, afterwards died as a beggar - is not only preposterous (and not only contradicts the known facts) - it is completely without any substantial evidence whatsoever. It is not just conjecture, it is deliberate (fanciful) ignoring of the documentation available. | |
