Lievens and Rembrandt were friends and probably worked together. [2] The composition of the painting may derive from a drawing by Rembrandt from the same time as the Burial of Christ. Rembrandt would most closely imitate Raising of Lazarus with his 1635/1639 painting The Resurrection.

Christ at Emmaus by Rembrandt, 1648, Louvre. Both the encounter on the road and the ensuing supper have been depicted in art, but the supper has received more attention.

Rembrandt often used religious scenes and imagery in his paintings. Rembrandt's family was quite wealthy, his father was a miller, and his mother a baker's daughter. Although he later created many biblical works, Rembrandt was not raised in the church. His mother was a Roman Catholic, and father belonged to the Dutch Reformed Church. [3]
