词汇 lazar
词源
lazar. Lazar has almost dropped out of use as a word for a diseased beggar or leper, but lazarone still describes a beggar of Naples. Both words are named for Lazarus, the only character in all his parables to whom Christ gave a proper name. During the Middle Ages lazar was the name given to those suffering from leprosy and other diseases, outcasts who were allowed to do nothing but beg. A lazaretto, or lazar-house, is a hospital for such persons, taking its name from lazar plus (N)azaretto, the popular name of a hospital in Venice managed by the Church of Santa Maria di Nazaret. The name Lazarus comes from the Hebrew Eleazar, meaning “God-aided,” or “God will help.” See also lazarus.
