Now a man named Lazarus was sick; he lived in Bethany, the village of Mary and her sister Martha. It was the Mary who poured perfume upon the Master and wiped his feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was sick. So the sisters sent this message to Jesus: "Master, your friend is sick." read more.
When Jesus received it he said, "This sickness is not to end in death, but is for the honor of God, that through it the Son of God may be honored." Jesus loved Martha and her sister and Lazarus. So when he heard that Lazarus was sick, he stayed on for two days in the place where he was, and then afterward said to his disciples, "Let us go back to Judea." The disciples said to him, "Master, the Jews have just been trying to stone you, and are you going back there again?" Jesus answered, "Is not the day twelve hours long? If a man travels by day he will not stumble, for he can see the light of this world; but if he travels at night he will stumble because he has no light." He told them this, and then he added, "Our friend Lazarus has fallen asleep, but I am going there to wake him." The disciples said to him, "Master, if he has fallen asleep he will recover." Now Jesus had referred to his death. But they supposed that he meant a natural falling asleep. So Jesus then told them plainly, "Lazarus is dead, and for your sake I am glad that I was not there, so that you may learn to believe in me. But let us go to him." So Thomas the Twin said to his fellow-disciples, "Let us go also, and die with him." When Jesus arrived he found that Lazarus had been buried for four days. Now Bethany is only about two miles from Jerusalem, and a number of Jews had come out to see Mary and Martha, to condole with them about their brother. When Martha heard that Jesus was coming she went out to meet him, but Mary remained at home. Martha said to Jesus, "Master, if you had been here, my brother would not have died! Even now I know that anything you ask God for, he will give you." Jesus said to her, "Your brother will rise." Martha said to him, "I know that he will rise at the resurrection, on the Last Day." Jesus said to her, "I myself am Resurrection and Life. He who believes in me will live on, even if he dies, and no one who is alive and believes in me will ever die. Do you believe that?" She said to him, "Yes, Master, I do indeed believe that you are the Christ, the Son of God, who was to come into the world." With these words she went and called her sister Mary, whispering to her, "Here is the Master, asking for you." When she heard it she sprang up and went to him, for Jesus had not yet come into the village, but was still at the place where Martha had met him. The Jews who were sitting with her in the house, condoling with her, when they saw Mary spring up and go out, supposed that she was going to weep at the tomb, and followed her. When Mary came where Jesus was and saw him, she fell at his feet, and said, "Master, if you had been here, my brother would not have died!" When Jesus saw her weep and the Jews who had come with her weeping too, repressing a groan, and yet showing great agitation, he said, "Where have you laid him?" They answered, "Come and see, Master." Jesus shed tears. So the Jews said, "See how much he loved him!" But some of them said, "Could not this man, who opened the eyes of that blind man, have kept Lazarus from dying?" Again repressing a groan, Jesus went to the tomb. It was a cave with a stone laid against the mouth of it. Jesus said, "Move the stone away." The dead man's sister, Martha, said to him, "Master, by this time he is decaying, for he has been dead four days." Jesus said to her, "Have I not promised you that if you will believe in me you will see the glory of God?" So they moved the stone away. And Jesus looked upward and said, "Father, I thank you for listening to me, though I knew that you always listen to me. But I have said this for the sake of the people that are standing around me that they may believe that you have made me your messenger." After saying this he called out in a loud voice, "Lazarus, come out!" The dead man came out, bound hand and foot with wrappings, and with his face muffled with a handkerchief. Jesus said to them, "Unbind him and let him move."

At that time some people brought to him a man blind and dumb, who was possessed by a demon, and he cured him, so that the dumb man could speak and see. And all the crowds of people were astounded, and said, "Can this be the Son of David?" But when the Pharisees heard of it they said, "This man cannot drive out demons except by the aid of Beelzebub, the prince of the demons." read more.
But he knew what they were thinking, and he said to them, "Any kingdom that is disunited is on the way to destruction, and any city or household that is disunited cannot last. If Satan is driving Satan out, he is disunited, and so how can his kingdom last? And if I am driving the demons out by Beelzebub's aid, by whose aid do your sons drive them out? Therefore let them be your judges. But if I am driving the demons out by the aid of God's Spirit, then the Kingdom of God has overtaken you. How can anyone get into a strong man's house and carry off his property unless he first binds the strong man? After that he can plunder his house. Anyone who is not with me is against me, and anyone who does not join me in gathering, scatters. Therefore, I tell you, men will be forgiven for any sin or abusive speech, but abusive speech about the Spirit cannot be forgiven. And whoever speaks against the Son of Man will be forgiven for it, but whoever speaks against the holy Spirit cannot be forgiven for it, either in this world or in the world to come.

For the mouth says only what the heart is full of. A good man, out of the good he has accumulated, brings out things that are good, and a bad man, out of what he has accumulated that is bad, brings out things that are bad. But I tell you, for every careless word that men utter they will have to answer on the Day of Judgment. For it is by your words that you will be acquitted, or by your words that you will be condemned."

Jesus said to her, "Why are you weeping? Who are you looking for?" She, supposing that he was the gardener, said to him, "If it was you, sir, that carried him away, tell me where you have put him, and I will take him away." "Mary!" said Jesus. She turned and said to him in Hebrew, "Rabbouni!" which means Master.

Mary of Magdala went and declared to the disciples, "I have seen the Master!" and she told them that he had said this to her.

For I am myself under the orders of others, and I have soldiers under me, and I tell one to go, and he goes, and another to come, and he comes, and my slave to do something, and he does it." When Jesus heard this, he was astonished at him, and turning to the crowd that was following him, he said, "I tell you, I have not found such faith as this even in Israel!" And when the messengers went back to the house, they found the slave well.

Jesus Christ » Miracles of » Raising of lazarus
Now a man named Lazarus was sick; he lived in Bethany, the village of Mary and her sister Martha. It was the Mary who poured perfume upon the Master and wiped his feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was sick. So the sisters sent this message to Jesus: "Master, your friend is sick." read more.
When Jesus received it he said, "This sickness is not to end in death, but is for the honor of God, that through it the Son of God may be honored." Jesus loved Martha and her sister and Lazarus. So when he heard that Lazarus was sick, he stayed on for two days in the place where he was, and then afterward said to his disciples, "Let us go back to Judea." The disciples said to him, "Master, the Jews have just been trying to stone you, and are you going back there again?" Jesus answered, "Is not the day twelve hours long? If a man travels by day he will not stumble, for he can see the light of this world; but if he travels at night he will stumble because he has no light." He told them this, and then he added, "Our friend Lazarus has fallen asleep, but I am going there to wake him." The disciples said to him, "Master, if he has fallen asleep he will recover." Now Jesus had referred to his death. But they supposed that he meant a natural falling asleep. So Jesus then told them plainly, "Lazarus is dead, and for your sake I am glad that I was not there, so that you may learn to believe in me. But let us go to him." So Thomas the Twin said to his fellow-disciples, "Let us go also, and die with him." When Jesus arrived he found that Lazarus had been buried for four days. Now Bethany is only about two miles from Jerusalem, and a number of Jews had come out to see Mary and Martha, to condole with them about their brother. When Martha heard that Jesus was coming she went out to meet him, but Mary remained at home. Martha said to Jesus, "Master, if you had been here, my brother would not have died! Even now I know that anything you ask God for, he will give you." Jesus said to her, "Your brother will rise." Martha said to him, "I know that he will rise at the resurrection, on the Last Day." Jesus said to her, "I myself am Resurrection and Life. He who believes in me will live on, even if he dies, and no one who is alive and believes in me will ever die. Do you believe that?" She said to him, "Yes, Master, I do indeed believe that you are the Christ, the Son of God, who was to come into the world." With these words she went and called her sister Mary, whispering to her, "Here is the Master, asking for you." When she heard it she sprang up and went to him, for Jesus had not yet come into the village, but was still at the place where Martha had met him. The Jews who were sitting with her in the house, condoling with her, when they saw Mary spring up and go out, supposed that she was going to weep at the tomb, and followed her. When Mary came where Jesus was and saw him, she fell at his feet, and said, "Master, if you had been here, my brother would not have died!" When Jesus saw her weep and the Jews who had come with her weeping too, repressing a groan, and yet showing great agitation, he said, "Where have you laid him?" They answered, "Come and see, Master." Jesus shed tears. So the Jews said, "See how much he loved him!" But some of them said, "Could not this man, who opened the eyes of that blind man, have kept Lazarus from dying?" Again repressing a groan, Jesus went to the tomb. It was a cave with a stone laid against the mouth of it. Jesus said, "Move the stone away." The dead man's sister, Martha, said to him, "Master, by this time he is decaying, for he has been dead four days." Jesus said to her, "Have I not promised you that if you will believe in me you will see the glory of God?" So they moved the stone away. And Jesus looked upward and said, "Father, I thank you for listening to me, though I knew that you always listen to me. But I have said this for the sake of the people that are standing around me that they may believe that you have made me your messenger." After saying this he called out in a loud voice, "Lazarus, come out!" The dead man came out, bound hand and foot with wrappings, and with his face muffled with a handkerchief. Jesus said to them, "Unbind him and let him move." So it came about that many of the Jews who had come to visit Mary and saw what Jesus did, came to believe in him, but some of them went back to the Pharisees and told them what he had done. Then the high priests and the Pharisees called a meeting of the council, and they said, "What are we to do about the fact that this man is showing so many signs? If we let him go on, everybody will believe in him, and then the Romans will come and put an end to our holy place and our people." But one of them, Caiaphas, who was high priest that year, said to them, "You know nothing about it. You do not realize that it is to your interest that one man should die for the people, instead of the whole nation being destroyed." Now he was not self-moved in saying this, but as high priest for that year he was inspired to say that Jesus was to die for the nation??52 and not only for the nation but also for the purpose of uniting the scattered children of God. So from that day they planned to kill Jesus. In consequence of this, Jesus did not appear in public among the Jews any longer, but he left that neighborhood and went to the district near the desert, to a town called Ephraim, and stayed there with his disciples.
