Johannes 11:12

Listen to Johannes 11:12
12 Zijn discipelen dan zeiden: Heere, indien hij slaapt, zo zal hij gezond worden.

Johannes 11:12 Meaning and Commentary

John 11:12

Then said his disciples, Lord, if he sleep
Soundly, quietly, and comfortably, and takes rest in it:

he shall do well;
or "be saved" from the disease; he will be delivered from it; he will recover out of it; it is a sign the distemper is leaving him, and he is growing better, and will be restored to his health again: the Ethiopic version renders it by many words, "he will be well", and "will awake", and "will live". Sound sleep is a sign of health. This they said to, put off their master from going into Judea, fearing the danger he would be exposed unto.

Johannes 11:12 In-Context

10 Maar indien iemand in den nacht wandelt, zo stoot hij zich, overmits het licht in hem niet is.
11 Dit sprak Hij; en daarna zeide Hij tot hen: Lazarus, onze vriend, slaapt; maar Ik ga heen, om hem uit den slaap op te wekken.
12 Zijn discipelen dan zeiden: Heere, indien hij slaapt, zo zal hij gezond worden.
13 Doch Jezus had gesproken van zijn dood; maar zij meenden, dat Hij sprak van de rust des slaaps.
14 Toen zeide dan Jezus tot hen vrijuit: Lazarus is gestorven.
