John 11:22

22 And even now I know that, whatsoever thou shalt ask of God, God will give thee.

John 11:22 Meaning and Commentary

John 11:22

But I know that even now
At this distance of time, though her brother had been in the grave four days:

whatsoever thou wilt ask of God, God will give [it] thee;
whether Martha had such a clear notion of the deity of Christ, as yet, as she afterwards had, is not so certain: however, she was persuaded that he had great interest with God, and that whatever he desired of him was granted to him; and though she does not mention the resurrection of her brother, yet it seems to be what she had in view.

John 11:22 In-Context

20 Martha therefore, when she heard that Jesus was coming, went and met him: but Mary still sat in the house.

21 Martha therefore said unto Jesus, Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died.

22 And even now I know that, whatsoever thou shalt ask of God, God will give thee.

23 Jesus saith unto her, Thy brother shall rise again.

24 Martha saith unto him, I know that he shall rise again in the resurrection at the last day.
