Listen to Andrew Klavan podcasr. He is a Messianic Jew and he taught me much about the story of Lazarus. He also wrote books, one being "The Great Good Thing" about how he came to Christ (which I am sure you are not interested in). He also does Daily Wire with Ben Shapiro a real Jew.......and I am a subscriber! Yes, the Jew you called a Jew hater loves Ben Shapiro!
i am pasting what most scholars claim.
Who is the rich man in the story of Lazarus?
1. The Rich Man is identified as
the Sadducees on similar lines as Cox, noting the Rich Man's high-priestly dress and identifying his five brothers as the five sons of Annas.
Who is Lazarus in the story of the Rich Man?
1.The "beggar" describes both the outcasts of Israel—the "publicans and sinners"—and the
Gentiles.
2.
Lazarus represents the
Gentile nations, who were hungry for the gospel. The
rich man represented those who kept the treasure to themselves.
3. 1. The
Lazarus of the
parable was Eleazar, Abraham's steward (Genesis 15:2). 2. He was a
Gentile "of Damascus"
