Johannes 11:22

22 Maar ook nu weet ik, dat alles, wat Gij van God begeren zult, God U het geven zal.

Johannes 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.

Johannes 11:22 In-Context

20 Martha dan, als zij hoorde, dat Jezus kwam, ging Hem tegemoet; doch Maria bleef in huis zitten.
21 Zo zeide Martha dan tot Jezus: Heere, waart Gij hier geweest, zo ware mijn broeder niet gestorven;
22 Maar ook nu weet ik, dat alles, wat Gij van God begeren zult, God U het geven zal.
23 Jezus zeide tot haar: Uw broeder zal wederopstaan.
24 Martha zeide tot Hem: Ik weet, dat hij opstaan zal in de opstanding ten laatsten dage.
