When their brother was sick, it was natural for Mary and Martha to send for Jesus because he was a friend to their family. Jesus delays his trip and Lazarus dies. By the time the Lord gets to their home, his friend has been dead four days. This is the story of how Jesus raised Lazarus from the dead.

There are four stories here. The first is about the rich man and a poor man. After death, the poor man is rewarded; and rich man is condemned. The second story is about ten bridesmaids, five wise and five foolish. The third and fourth stories are illustrations about the kingdom of heaven.

Everything in this story happens at the home of a prominent Pharisee. First Jesus heals a man and gives instruction on why that is proper to do on the Sabbath. He then instructs both guest and host on how to use a special meal to bring honor to God.

Jesus goes up to the Jerusalem area to visit his friends Lazarus, Mary, and Martha. While there, he is asked about heaven, and who exactly is “my neighbor.” Jesus tells this story. Later at the meal, Martha complains about Mary not helping.
