God is waiting for a death Lazarus will die from because Lazarus is dead
with a death that makes stars shine—as dead as a bare tree of Bethany
beneath its bark is green, for to die from is to be alive in the dark sola
& Lazarus is God’s dying need.
To be dead with a death that one cannot die from is why God will not bury
the dead for God in death is Lazarus when he wakes.
Lazarus is dead because God is awake & Lazarus is waiting.
If Lazarus was awake & God dying, Lazarus would shine like a light
through the wild leaves of Bethany’s trees. He would be like a sun waiting
for a death that Easter is alive with, for Lazarus will wake when God,
who is waiting, will not because Lazarus is dead with a life
God has died from.
