1-st of all i'm a Christian so I'd like to receive answers only from believers if that's possible, thanks.
So why was Jesus able to ressurect Lazar if " it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment: " (Hebrews 9:27)
What about Jesus' ressurection itself. He was the Son of Man too right ?
btw I am aware that Lazar was in hades (or whatever that place is called) and that Jesus did not had to get him out of hell/heaven and come back. After all people, when they die, go into a long sleep, and await the judgement, not directly to hell/Heaven.

Jesus can do whatever He likes. He's God. :>
John chapter 11.
Jesus raised Lazarus to show them the glory of God.
Faith based on miracles is shallow and short-lived however.
By the way - That's not the only occurance, either.
Peter was given the ability to do likewise, raising Tabitha.
Check out Acts 9:36-43
Saul summoned Samuel back from the dead via a witch at Endor.
See 1Samuel chapter 28.

Jesus is God (the second in the Holy Trinity) and is able to do anything.
