Context Readings

The Rich Man And Lazarus

23 He was in great torment in the grave (hades). He looked up and saw Abraham, far away, with Lazarus at his side. 24 And he cried out and said, ‘Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus so that he may dip the tip of his finger in water and cool off my tongue, for I am in agony in this flame.’ 25 Abraham said: Remember, my son, in your lifetime you were given good things, while Lazarus got all the bad things. Now he is enjoying himself while you are in torment.
