Abstract. The article considers the problem of interpreting the biblical legend of Lazarus’s Resurrection in the works of the Latin authors of the IX-XI centuries and in the late Byzantine literature. The researchers introduce new information acquired from the previously untranslated works by Remigius of Auxerre, Odo of Cluny, John the Carthusian, George Kodinos, encyclopedist Maximus Planudes, emperor John VI. The paper compares medieval perception of the biblical legend of Lazarus’s Resurrection and the interpretation proposed by Holy Fathers in the IV-V centuries. Analysing commentaries of the Latin authors of the IX-XI centuries and the late Byzantine writers, the researchers identify similarities between patristic interpretation of John chapter XI and medieval Christian perception of the legend of Lazarus. The paper also reveals differences in the exegesis of ecclesiastical writers, whose works represent dynamics of the key events in the life of the church, where the legend of Lazarus is a response to theological challenges facing Christianity.
