Jean 11:22

22 Mais, maintenant même, je sais que tout ce que tu demanderas à Dieu, Dieu te l'accordera.

Jean 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.

Jean 11:22 In-Context

20 Lorsque Marthe apprit que Jésus arrivait, elle alla au-devant de lui, tandis que Marie se tenait assise à la maison.
21 Marthe dit à Jésus: Seigneur, si tu eusses été ici, mon frère ne serait pas mort.
22 Mais, maintenant même, je sais que tout ce que tu demanderas à Dieu, Dieu te l'accordera.
23 Jésus lui dit: Ton frère ressuscitera.
24 Je sais, lui répondit Marthe, qu'il ressuscitera à la résurrection, au dernier jour.
