{{quote5 |내용= “There was a rich man who was dressed in purple and fine linen and lived in luxury every day.

In this parable, the rich man ended up in [[hell]], while Lazarus was carried to [[Kingdom of Heaven|heaven]]. Interestingly, Lazarus’ entrance into heaven is described as “being carried to Abraham’s side.” Even more striking, the rich man in hell called out to Abraham in heaven, saying, “Father Abraham.” In the spiritual world, only God can rightfully be called “Father.” This suggests that Abraham symbolizes [[God the Father]]. Therefore, [[History of Abraham’s Family|Abraham’s descendants—the heirs of his inheritance]]—represent God’s heirs, who will inherit the kingdom of God, that is, the kingdom of heaven. | In this parable, the rich man ended up in [[hell]], while Lazarus was carried to [[Kingdom of Heaven|heaven]].
