To do so, we need to establish what the author of John's Gospel knew about Lazarus. There is a parable in Luke's Gospel, where Jesus tells 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 is clearly not the Lazarus of John's Gospel. It is important to note that in both gospels and nowhere else, Martha and Mary are sisters and friends of Jesus.
We now know that the anonymous author of John's Gospel relied on Luke's Gospel for much of his material about Jesus. In this Gospel, Lazarus is the brother of Martha and Mary, and when Jesus raises Lazarus from the dead it is no longer a parable. Although it is clear that John's account was inspired by Luke's, we can not take from Luke that Lazarus was in hell. It is intended as a different story, and we can not say whether Lazarus was in hell.
Answer:
Though the Gospels tell of two people named Lazarus, you are clearly asking about the 'friend' of Jesus in John's work.
The simple answer is Yes, he was as far as the English translations present. The most commonly used term that is translated as 'hell' is Sheol in the Hebrew and Hades in the Greek - this being the New Testament, the Greek Hades is used. It simply means the 'grave or pit (tomb)' where people's bodies were placed when they died. It is the common fate of all humans - even Jesus Christ for 3 days and 3 nights went to the tomb (hell).
The modern ideas about hell in many mainstream Christian Churches will not be found in the Scripture but in literary works - the most prevalent ideas come from 'Dante's Inferno.' The Bible tells us that when we die, our human spirit goes back to God in Heaven for safekeeping - until the time of Judgement. The body returns to the ground (clay) from which it was created:
Ecclesiastes 12:7New King James Version (NKJV)7 Then the dust will return to the earth as it was,
And the spirit will return to God who gave it.
Yes. Jesus raises Lazarus in John Chapter 11, and the betrayal and crucifixion don't begin until John Chapter 18.
Four days:
John 11:39 "Take the stone away!" Jesus ordered. Martha, the dead man's sister, answered, "There will be a bad smell, Lord. He has been buried four days!"

Lazarus was raised from the dead by Jesus. He was a brother of Mary and Martha, living in Bethany. Found in John, chapter 11. Jesus spoke of another Lazarus, who was poor, sitting and begging at the gate of a rich man's home. This beggar died and went to "Abraham's bosom," a way of saying that he went to paradise. The rich man, who didn't care about the needs of the poor beggar, also died, but went to Hell, where he was in torments. Found in Luke 16:19-31.
How did Lasarus die the second death?
A: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 same Lazarus died and was resurrected twice. 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. In Luke's Gospel, Martha and Mary are sisters and friends of Jesus, but are not related to Lazarus. 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.John's Gospel says that Lazarus was the brother of Jesus' very close friends, Martha and Mary. His exact cause of death was unimportant, because Jesus was to raise Lazarus from the dead after several days. Having been raised from the dead, Lazarus was still mortal and would die again one day. The gospel does not say anything about the final death of Lazarus, although it does say that the priests talked about having Lazarus killed (John 12:10).For theological reasons, the author of John wanted to make the resurrection of Lazarus the final trigger for the arrest of Jesus. He therefore moved the Cleansing of the Temple out of the way, to the beginning of his story, almost immediately after Jesus met John the Baptist. In John 12:19, the turning point is identified: "The Pharisees therefore said among themselves, Perceive ye how ye prevail nothing? behold, the world is gone after him.")
Why does frank say jesus wept in hell raiser?
I've often wondered this as well. As far as I know, there is no one really reason, other than the fact that it was just something creepy for him to say looking so horrible with the hooks in his face.The saying itself is from the King James Bable. It comes from the story of Lazarus where Jesus wept before the tomb of his dead friend, Lazarus, and then resurrected him...so maybe it was some sort of foreshadowing that he would be resurrected and eternally damned in hell? Just my opinion.------Answer B.The quote comes from John:11 in the bible"When Mary reached the place where Jesus was and saw him, she fell at his feet and said, "Lord, if you had been here, my brother would not have died."When Jesus saw her weeping, and the Jews who had come along with her also weeping, he was deeply moved in spirit and troubled. "Where have you laid him?" he asked."Come and see, Lord," they replied.Jesus wept.Then the Jews said, "See how he loved him!"But some of them said, "Could not he who opened the eyes of the blind man have kept this man from dying?" "However the line was not actually in the script, and when it was spoken on camera it was improvised.
Why did Jesus send Lazarus to hell for four days?
A:It is not so much that Jesus sent Lazarus to hell for four days, as that he seems to have deliberately delayed his arrival until John had been dead for four days. John 11:5 tells us that Jesus loved Mary and Martha, whose brother, Lazarus, he raised from the dead. Jewish tradition said that the soul departs the body after three days, so that resurrection must no longer be possible. We are repeatedly told that Lazarus has been dead four days and his body stinks, yet Jesus commands him to rise up out of his tomb and he came forth.An explanation of this is in the history of the passage. In the only other known record of Mary, Martha and Lazarus, Luke 10:38-42 contains a brief story of Jesus visiting the sisters Mary and Martha in a village and another story in which Jesus tells a parable about Lazarus that mentions his death and resurrection hypothetically. John 11:5 tells us that Jesus loved Mary and Martha, whose brother, Lazarus, he later raises from the dead. The coincidences of name, death and hypothetical or actual resurrection of Lazarus is taken as strong evidence that the concept was taken by the author of John from Luke's Gospel. The author knew that resurrection after more than three days was regarded as impossible, so conspicuously wrote this as a story of Jesus raising Lazarus after four days.

Was the Lazarus who died poor the same as the one Jesus raised?
A:No, there are two persons called Lazarus in the New Testament, however the story of the second Lazarus (in John's gospel) does seem to have been inspired by the first. The first Lazarus is in a parable in Luke's Gospel, where 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. Here, Martha and Mary are poor people from an unnamed village, sisters and friends of Jesus.In John's Gospel, Martha and Mary are also sisters and friends of Jesus, but apparently wealthy. These sisters have a brother called Lazarus whom Jesus really does raise from the dead. The close parallels are a reminder that John's Gospel is actually based on Luke's Gospel, so that John's one story of Martha, Mary and Lazarus was inspired by Luke's two different stories. Although the account appears intended to be read literally, the literary parallels tell us Lazarus was not a real person either.
Who was the father of Mary and Martha and lazarus?
The story of Martha, Mary and Lazarus is to be found in John's Gospel only. It is never mentioned in any of the other gospels, although John says that Jesus raised Lazarus from the dead after several days, in possibly his greatest miracle. However, Martha, Mary and Lazarus are mentioned in Luke's Gospel.in two stories that are different yet surprisingly parallel to the one story in John's Gospel.In Luke's Gospel, Martha and Mary are sisters and friends of Jesus, but do not have a brother called Lazarus. 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. The close parallels are a reminder that John's Gospel is actually based on Luke's Gospel, so that John's one story of Martha, Mary and Lazarus was inspired by Luke's two different stories.Martha, Mary and Lazarus were not real people and had no father.
Is there hell in Mormon beliefs?
Members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) do believe in Hell. The term Hell is used to describe two different locations. The first is Spirit Prison. This is the temporary dwelling place of those that were disobedient in mortality. In Spirit Prison, people are given the opportunity to repent of their earthly sins and accept Jesus Christ. Those who repent and accept Christ will be resurrected to one of the degrees of heaven. Those who do not will face a thousand years of torment in Spirit Prison before being resurrected to the lowest degree of heaven. The second location called Hell is Outer Darkness. This is the permanent location of those spirits who will not be redeemed by Jesus Christ because they have "denied the Son after the Father has revealed Him". Those who go to Outer Darkness dwell there eternally with Satan. They are called the Sons of Perdition. You can learn more about what Mormons believe about Hell at the "Related Links" below
