John 11:17-27 - Jesus The Resurrection And The Life
17 So, when Jesus arrived, He found out that Lazarus had already been in his grave [i.e., a cave-like tomb] for four days. 18 Now Bethany was close to Jerusalem, [being] fewer than two miles away, 19 and many of Martha and Mary's Jewish friends had come to comfort them over [the loss of] their brother. 20 So, when Martha heard that Jesus was coming, she went [out to the edge of town. See verse 30] to meet Him, but Mary [just] sat at home [i.e., probably grief-stricken].
21 Then Martha said to Jesus, "Lord, if [only] you had been here, my brother would not have died. 22 And I know that even now God will give you whatever you ask Him for."
23 Jesus said to her, "Your brother will rise again [from the dead]."
24 Martha replied to Him, "I know that he will rise again at the resurrection on the last day [i.e., the judgment day]."
25 Jesus said to her, "I am the resurrection and the life; the person who believes in me will live on, even though he dies [physically]. 26 And whoever goes on living and believing in me, will never die [spiritually]. Do you believe this?"
27 Martha answered Him, "Yes, Lord, I have [already] believed that you are the Christ, the Son of God, who was to come into the world."
