St Magnus Felix Ennodius (c 473-521), the Bishop of Pavia and Rhetorician and Poet (Feast day – 17 July), includes him in a list of twelve holy Bishops of Milan, of whom St Ambrose was the first and most eminent. The times were volatile and troublesome, for the Goths were ravaging Italy and were masters of Milan but although Lazarus had much to suffer at their hands, he ruled his flock prudently and faithfully. St Lazarus became Bishop of Milan in 438. It is believed that he resisted the Manichaeans, in the footsteps of St Pope Leo the Great. A late tradition, with little historical basis, associates Lazarus with the Milan’s family of the Beccardi. We have almost no information about the life and episcopate of St Lazarus, though his name means “he who is assisted by God.” He probably studied in Milan and is reported to have been of stern appearance.
