Juan 11:21 Meaning and Commentary

John 11:21

When said Martha unto Jesus
When she was come to him,

Lord, if thou hadst been here my brother had not died:
which expresses much faith, but with a mixture of weakness, as if the presence of Christ was necessary for the working a cure; whereas he could as well have restored her brother to health absent, as present, had it been his will, as he did the centurion's servant, and the nobleman's son of Capernaum.

Juan 11:21 In-Context

19 Y muchos de los Judíos habían venido á Marta y á María, á consolarlas de su hermano.

20 Entonces Marta, como oyó que Jesús venía, salió á encontrarle; mas María se estuvo en casa.

21 Y Marta dijo á Jesús: Señor, si hubieses estado aquí, mi hermano no fuera muerto;

22 Mas también sé ahora, que todo lo que pidieres de Dios, te dará Dios.

23 Dícele Jesús: Resucitará tu hermano.
