Passover also known as Pesach or Pesah (פסח pesaḥ), as a Christian holiday, was observed historically by a number of early Christians and is observed today by a small number of Christian groups.[1] Unlike the Jewish Passover which commemorates the deliverance of the Israelites from Egyptian slavery, the Christian Passover commemorates the deliverance from sin by the sacrifice of Jesus, the fulfillment of the prophetic Old Testament Passover. The Christian Passover begins on the evening of the 14th day of Nisan.
A miracle is a perceptible interruption of the laws of nature, such that can only be explained by divine intervention, and is sometimes associated with a miracle-worker. Many folktales, religious texts, and people claim various events they refer to as "miraculous". People in different cultures have substantially different definitions of the word "miracle." Even within a specific religion there is often more than one of the term. Sometimes the term "miracle" may refer to the action of a supernatural being that is not a god. Thus, the term "divine intervention," by contrast, would refer specifically to the direct involvement of a deity.
Dives and Lazarus or Lazarus and Dives is a narrative[1] attributed to Jesus that is reported only in the Gospel of Luke (Luke 16:19-31). It is also known as "The Rich Man and the Beggar Lazarus."
