John 11:13 In-Context

11 ταῦτα εἶπεν, καὶ μετὰ τοῦτο λέγει αὐτοῖς · Λάζαρος ὁ φίλος ἡμῶν κεκοίμηται, ἀλλὰ πορεύομαι ἵνα ἐξυπνίσω αὐτόν.
12 εἶπαν οὖν οἱ μαθηταὶ αὐτῷ · Κύριε, εἰ κεκοίμηται σωθήσεται.
13 εἰρήκει δὲ ὁ Ἰησοῦς περὶ τοῦ θανάτου αὐτοῦ. ἐκεῖνοι δὲ ἔδοξαν ὅτι περὶ τῆς κοιμήσεως τοῦ ὕπνου λέγει.
14 τότε οὖν εἶπεν αὐτοῖς ὁ Ἰησοῦς παρρησίᾳ · Λάζαρος ἀπέθανεν,
15 καὶ χαίρω δι’ ὑμᾶς, ἵνα πιστεύσητε, ὅτι οὐκ ἤμην ἐκεῖ · ἀλλὰ ἄγωμεν πρὸς αὐτόν.
