And others, a multitude both of men and women, cried out, saying: This man is a prophet, and the demons are subject to him. Pilate says to them who said that the demons were subject to Him: Why, then, were not your teachers also subject to him? They say to Pilate: We do not know. And others said: He raised Lazarus from the tomb after he had been dead four days.[John 11:1-16] And the procurator trembled, and said to all the multitude of the Jews: Why do you wish to pour out innocent blood?

... there is no lamp in him. This said Jesus: and after that, he said unto them, Lazarus our friend hath fallen asleep; but [57] I am going to awaken him. His disciples said unto him, Our Lord, if he hath [58] fallen asleep, he will recover. But Jesus said that concerning his death: while they [59] supposed that he spake of lying down to sleep. Then Jesus said unto them plainly, [60] Lazarus is dead. And I am glad that I was not there for your sakes, that ye may [61] believe; but let us go thither.[John 11:16] Thomas, who is called Thama, said to the disciples, his companions, Let us also go, and die with him.

... great and highly esteemed as he was; then the man of whom you write that he was second only to the Apostles, and that all the wise admire him, and whom you have praised up to the skies a thousand times over, not as you say in two, but in innumerable places, this man who was before an Apostle, you now turn round and make a heretic. Thirdly, this very Didymus whom you designate the Seer-Prophet, who has the eye of the bride in the Song of Songs, and whom you call according to the meaning of his name[John 11:16] an Apostolic man, you now on the other hand criminate as a perverse teacher, and separate him off with what you call your censor’s rod, into the communion of heretics. I do not know whence you received this rod. I know that Christ once gave the keys ...

9. Wouldest thou see yet more surely that some are saved by others’ faith? Lazarus died[John 11:14-44]: one day had passed, and a second, and a third: his sinews were decayed, and corruption was preying already upon his body.
