In the New Testament: This section is rife with primary source references, but very few to scholarly writings by NT professors (see section title), of which, there are, on these subjects a veritable legion. We are not called to present our persepectives here, gained from primary source reading. We are called to present a preponderance of scholarly opinion based on secondary sources (not to create WP as a secondary source based on our opinions).
The plot to kill Lazarus of Bethany: Calling on referencing that is verifiable, in the case of the opinions of Sepp and Drioux that are mentioned. (WIkilinks do not qualify as citations. Citations must appear in each article, not at end of following a chain of wikilinks.)

===The plot to kill Lazarus of Bethany===
The involvement of the family of Annas may be implied in the plot to kill [[Lazarus of Bethany]] in {{bibleverse|John|12:10|KJV}}. Although Annas is not mentioned by name in the plot to kill Lazarus, several 19th-century writers such as [[Johann Nepomuk Sepp]] and the [[Abbé Drioux]],{{full|date = March 2024}} considered that there may be a concealed reference to Annas in the parable of the [[Lazarus and Dives|Rich Man and Lazarus]] which points at a "rich man" with five brothers ({{bibleverse|Luke|16:28|KJV}}).{{says who|date = March 2024}} If it is considered that the rich man dressed in purple and fine linen (cf. {{bibleverse|Exodus|28:8|KJV}}) represents Caiaphas, as figurehead of the Sadducees, then Annas is intended by the "father" in {{bibleverse|Luke|16:27|KJV}}, and the "five brothers" {{bibleverse|Luke|16:28|KJV}} are Annas' five sons. In support of this is the coincidence that the father and five brothers who will not be convinced even if the parable Lazarus is raised from the dead ({{bibleverse|Luke|16:31|KJV}}) predict that Caiaphas, Annas, and the five sons of Annas would not believe and plotted to have the real Lazarus killed when he was raised ({{bibleverse|John|12:10|KJV}}).
