When Christ had risen Lazarus from the dead, Why did he not ever laugh again or say what he saw ?
Answer to Question 411
We are not told if Lazarus ever spoke of what he saw during the 4 days in Hades, but it could be that he was not allowed to mention anything or the sight was so horrific that he couldn’t find the human words to describe it. What we do know is that what he saw caused him to never smile or joke again with the one exception when he saw someone stealing a pot, and he smilingly said: "the clay steals the clay."
