A:There are two persons called Lazarus in the New Testament. The first is in a parable in Luke's Gospel, which tells of Lazarus hypothetically raised from the dead. This Lazarus is mentioned 4 times.

The second Lazarus is in John's Gospel, which says that Jesus raised him from the dead after several days. John's Gospel as a whole is loosely based on Luke's Gospel, and it can readily be demonstrated that this story of Lazarus was inspired by Luke's parable about the other Lazarus. Here, Lazarus is mentioned 11 times.
