"Lazarus represents the suffering poor who believe in Christ. When the trumpet sounds and all that are in the graves hear Christ's voice and come forth, they will receive their reward; for their faith in God was not a mere theory, but a reality. COL 262.2"
"For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:"
EGW connects the resurrection of the poor (Lazarus) with the general resurrection described in 1 Thessalonians 4:16. The connection is thematic, focusing on the reward of the faithful at the resurrection.
