A:The tomb of Lazarus has never been found and is never likely to be found.

In Luke's Gospel, Jesus tells a parable of Lazarus dying and going down to hell where he meets a rich man being punished for his sins. The rich man asks for Lazarus to be raised from the dead so that he can warn his friends of the fate that awaits them. This Lazarus was not intended to be understood as a real person and therefore there is no tomb..

Martha and Mary appear in Luke's Gospel as sisters and as friends of Jesus but are not related to Lazarus, however in John's Gospel Lazarus was the brother of Martha and Mary. He died and was already interred in a tomb, but was miraculously resurrected by Jesus after four days.

The similarity of the stories of Lazarus, Martha and Mary in Luke's Gospel and John's Gospel can lead the casual reader to believe that the two gospels talk of the same Lazarus. The confusion can be cleared up by understanding that John's Gospel was actually inspired by Luke's Gospel. It can then be understood that the author of John took the story from Luke and reworked it, producing a completely different but parallel story about Lazarus. Since Lazarus was a literary creation of John's Gospel, his tomb will never be found.
