Giovanni 11:1 Meaning and Commentary

John 11:1

Now a certain man was sick
Very likely of a fever; Nonnus calls it a morbid fire, a hot and burning disease:

[named] Lazarus of Bethany;
for his name, which the Ethiopic version reads "Eleazar", and the Persic version "Gazarus", (See Gill on Luke 16:24); and for the place Bethany, (See Gill on Matthew 21:1), (See Gill on Matthew 21:17).

The town of Mary and her sister Martha;
where they were both born, as well as Lazarus, or at least where they dwelt; of the former, some account is, given in the next verse, and of the latter, (See Gill on Luke 10:38).

Giovanni 11:1 In-Context

1 Or v’era un ammalato, un certo Lazzaro di Betania, del villaggio di Maria e di Marta sua sorella.
2 Maria era quella che unse il Signore d’olio odorifero e gli asciugò i piedi co’ suoi capelli; e Lazzaro, suo fratello, era malato.
3 Le sorelle dunque mandarono a dire a Gesù: Signore, ecco, colui che tu ami è malato.
4 Gesù, udito ciò, disse: Questa malattia non è a morte, ma è per la gloria di Dio, affinché per mezzo d’essa il Figliuol di Dio sia glorificato.
5 Or GesĂą amava Marta e sua sorella e Lazzaro.
