Before Lazarus rolled out of bed, he peeked through the weave of his rough blanket to see if he was still dead. He could tell by the color of the walls.
What a nice post-Easter palette cleanser! Although curiously absent any references to bunnies or painted eggs (which embody the true meaning of Easter), this resurrection fable was nevertheless reminiscent of alternative stories of Easter I recall hearing at some point. Very entertaining, Victor. It put a smile on my face during the times that my face wasn't otherwise contorted around a coffee cup.
Irreverent, humorous, complex. Jesus as influencer, John the Baptist as warmup act, and Mr. Bethany trying to sort things out between his frequent deaths. The all new, New Testament, presented by VDS!

Me encantó esta historia Víctor, me mostraste a un Jesús moderno en la manera de transmitir el mensaje pero sin cambiar su esencia 👍
Gracias Mónica. Me da gusto que te disfrutaste. Un Jesús moderno sí, con su redes sociales de la época. :)
Can you rewrite the whole of the bible please?
Okay, I'll get on that. Should have it ready in about 2000 years. Thanks for checking out the tale, Trilety!
I think this is one of your best, Victor.
Thanks James, glad you liked it. I had fun :) Happy Easter (belated)!

Oh, yes, the bunnies. I knew I was missing something :) Still, even without them, I'm glad you got a smile going there with your coffee. Thanks, Mike!

Another fine piece of work, my friend.
Thanks Jim. Irreverent, indeed. I probably managed to offend a few folks, but glad you hung in there!!
