John 11:37-39
The Voice
37 But others were skeptical.
Others: If this man can give sight to the blind, He could have kept him from dying.
They are asking, if Jesus loves Lazarus so much, why didn’t He get here much sooner?
38 Then Jesus, who was intensely troubled by all of this, approached the tomb—a small cave covered by a massive stone.
Jesus: 39 Remove the stone.
Martha: Lord, he has been dead four days; the stench will be unbearable.
John 11:37-39
New International Version
37 But some of them said, “Could not he who opened the eyes of the blind man(A) have kept this man from dying?”(B)
Jesus Raises Lazarus From the Dead
38 Jesus, once more deeply moved,(C) came to the tomb. It was a cave with a stone laid across the entrance.(D) 39 “Take away the stone,” he said.
“But, Lord,” said Martha, the sister of the dead man, “by this time there is a bad odor, for he has been there four days.”(E)
