who was the biggest comeback before Lazaru?

Perhaps the previous greatest comeback was a really cracking game of footy where the underdogs were like 3-0 down and made it up to 4 by the end or something?

Just throwing something into the pot but I used to read a lot of paperbacks in the 70s.
Jesus didn't actually raise Lazarus from the dead in the literal sense.
Basically Lazarus used to believe so he was 'alive', he then became an unbleliever so was 'dead' and Jesus bought him 'alive' again.

So really Lazarus was just an indecisive **** who hopped back on the Jesus-mobile to get his name in his biography.

So... Lazarus stopped believing in Jesus... thinking Jesus was a figment of his imagination for a while?

Or?

He was dead in a tomb for 3 days, that's pretty dead

I sometimes relax in a tomb for three days when I lose faith.

Careful! You're verging on blasphemy.

Surely the phrase "X is the biggest comeback since Lazarus" implies that there was no such comeback before Lazarus. It doesn't say that Lazarus was the biggest comeback for some time, which would definitely beg the question of who came (back) first.

Does this Post make sense? I fear not.
