Lazarus of Bethany, the friend and follower of Christ, was the recipient of the last miracle Christ performed before the passion. According to medieval tradition, Lazarus and his sister Mary Magdalene were put to sea and miraculously landed at Sainte-Maries, near the city of Marseille, where Lazarus became the city's first bishop and was later martyred in the second half of the first century. His cult following grew around Gaul, and his relics were venerated in Autun, Vézelay, and Vendôme. In the Roman calendar, the feast day of Lazarus is celebrated on December 17. The Lazarus story from John, chapter 11, was read on the Saturday before Passion Sunday (fifth Sunday of Lent). In Vendôme, however, the calendar's from the abbey, Lazarus's feast day is listed on September 19. In a breviary manuscript (BMV 17), the feast day is marked in cappis to designate the special vestments the monks wore to commemorate this special feast day. The liturgy at Vendôme was particularly rich, as the sixteenth-century gradual, from which the office below is derived, contains over forty chants and responses. A twelfth-century antiphonary from Marseille (BnF ms. lat. 1090) contains forty-four chants for the Office of Lazare. This signals how important Lazarus was to the liturgical life at La Trinité.
