Darowyn	Origins: Dives and Lazarus-or vice versa(Child 56) (71* d)	RE: Help: Dives and Lazarus - or vice versa	21 Jun 11
Although there seem to be plenty of people who know that Dives means 'rich', nobody yet has picked up that Lazarus is also an adjective prior to being taken as a personal name. "Dives atque lazarus' could be translated as "The Rich Man and the Leper" I don't know enough Hebrew to know if the same is true of Eleazer, though it would not surprise me, since there is a trace of the same word root there. Cheers Dave
