14
So Jesus said to them plainly then, "Lazarus is dead.
15
I am glad for your sakes that I was not there, so that you may believe. Nevertheless, let's go to him."
16
Thomas therefore, who is called Didymus, said to his fellow disciples, "Let's go also, that we may die with him."
17
So when Jesus came, he found that he had been in the tomb four days already.

Many of the Jews had come to Martha and Mary, to console them concerning their brother.
20
Therefore Martha, when she heard that Jesus was coming, went and met him, but Mary stayed in the house.
21
Therefore Martha said to Jesus, "Lord, if you would have been here, my brother wouldn't have died.
22
Even now I know that, whatever you ask of God, God will give you."
23
Jesus said to her, "Your brother will rise again."
