mnt - John:11:17-37

mnt@John:11:17 @ so when Jesus arrived, he found that Lazarus had already been four days in the tomb.

mnt@John:11:18 @ Now Bethany was near Jerusalem, only about two miles away;

mnt@John:11:19 @ so a number of the Jews had gone to Martha and Mary to sympathize with them concerning their brother.

mnt@John:11:20 @ So when Martha learned that Jesus was coming, she went to meet him, but Mary remained sitting in the house.

mnt@John:11:21 @ Then Martha said to Jesus. "Master, had you been here my brother would not have died;

mnt@John:11:22 @ but even now I know that whatever you ask of God, God will give you."

mnt@John:11:23 @ Jesus said to her, "Your brother will rise again."

mnt@John:11:24 @ Martha answered, "I know that he will rise in the resurrection, at the Last Day."

mnt@John:11:25 @ "I am the resurrection and the life, "said Jesus. "He who believes in me, even if he has died, shall live.

mnt@John:11:26 @ And every one who is living and believes in me shall never die. Do you believe this?"

mnt@John:11:27 @ "Yes, Master," she answered, "I have come to believe that you are the Christ, the Son of God, who was to come into the world."

mnt@John:11:28 @ With these words she went away to call her sister Mary, saying privately, "The Teacher is here and is asking for you."

mnt@John:11:29 @ So when Mary heard this, she rose quickly and went to meet him.

mnt@John:11:30 @ Jesus had not yet arrived in the village, but was still at the place where Martha met him.

mnt@John:11:31 @ Then the Jews who were in the house trying to console her, when they saw that Mary rose quickly and went out, followed her, because they thought she was going to the tomb to weep there.

mnt@John:11:32 @ When Mary came to the place where Jesus was, and saw him, she fell at his feet, saying, "Master had you been here, my brother would not have died."

mnt@John:11:33 @ Then when Jesus saw her sobbing, and the Jews likewise who accompanied her, sobbing, he shuddered with indignation in his spirit, and was deeply agitated.

mnt@John:11:34 @ "Where have you laid him?" he said. "Master, come and see," they answered.

mnt@John:11:35 @ Jesus burst into tears.

mnt@John:11:36 @ "See how he loved him," said the Jews. But some of them said,

mnt@John:11:37 @ "Could not this man, who has opened the eyes of the blind man, have prevented this man also from dying?"
