John 11:7

Then after that
The next day, the third day after he had heard of Lazarus's sickness:

saith he to [his] disciples, let us go into Judea again;
for the country beyond Jordan was distinguished from Judea; (See Gill on Matthew 4:25).

John 11:7 In-Context

5 Yeshua loved Marta and her sister and El`azar;
6 so when he heard he was sick, first he stayed where he was two more days;
7 then, after this, he said to the talmidim, "Let's go back to Y'hudah."
8 The talmidim replied, "Rabbi! Just a short while ago the Judeans were out to stone you -- and you want to go back there?"
9 Yeshua answered, "Aren't there twelve hours of daylight? If a person walks during daylight, he doesn't stumble; because he sees the light of this world.
