The Pulpit Commentary - John 11:1-16

The raising of Lazarus. This event, a third good work, hastened the final crisis. I. THE BETHANY FAMILY . "Now a certain man was sick , Lazarus of Bethany, the town of Mary and her sister Martha." 1. Their home . It was a small village on the eastern slope of the Mount of Olives, two miles from Jerusalem. It is familiar to us in the earlier Gospels as the place to which our Lord resorted from time to time for happy retirement. It remains the sweetest spot in the... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - John 11:1-57

7. Christ the Antagonist of death—a victory of love and power . The narrative of this chapter is a further advance in the proof that the unbelief of the Jews was aggravated by the greatness of the revelation. The issue of his sublime and culminating act of power, of his supreme and self-revealing work of transcendent tenderness and beauty, was a deeper and wilder passion of hatred. The evangelist completes his series of seven great miracles with one that in true and believing minds,... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - John 11:15

And I rejoice that I was not there . Death could not have occurred in his presence; at least, as Bengel says, we never read of any one dying in the presence of the Prince of life. Whenever he came into contact with death, he conquered the great enemy. Still, this was not the absolute reason for his gladness. The gladness was conditioned by the need of the disciples, not merely for the comfort of the sisters, or for his own greater glory, but for your sakes, to the end that ye might believe ... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - John 11:15-21

Good in apparent evil. Notice— I. THAT ALL THE MOVEMENTS OF CHRIST ON EARTH HAD AN IMMEDIATE REGARD TO OTHERS . 1. His life on earth was purely vicarious . "For your sakes." Not only his death was vicarious, but his life was equally so. Not only he died for others, but he lived for them as well. His vicarious death was only the natural outcome of his vicarious life. All his movements, his actions, his miracles, his teaching and utterances, the fact... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - John 11:16

Thomas , in Aramaic, is equivalent in meaning to the Greek name Didymus , or "twin." This apostle is mentioned in the synoptic Gospels with Matthew, and in Acts ( Acts 1:13 ) with Philip. He is classed with the fishermen ( John 21:2 ), and may therefore have been a Galilaean. Ecclesiastical tradition has associated him with Judas (not Iscariot) (Eusebius, 'Hist. Eccl.,' Ecclesiastes 1:13 ), and with Judas the brother of Jesus. He is reputed to have preached ultimately in Parthia... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - John 11:15

I am glad ... - The meaning of this verse may be thus expressed: “If I had been there during his sickness, the entreaties of his sisters and friends would have prevailed with me to restore him to health. I could not have refused them without appearing to be unkind. Though a restoration to health would have been a miracle, and sufficient to convince you, yet the miracle of raising him after being four days dead will be far more impressive, and on that account I rejoice that an opportunity is... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - John 11:16

Thomas, which is called Didymus - These names express the same thing. One is Hebrew and the other Greek. The name means a twin.Die with him - It has been much doubted by critics whether the word him refers to Lazarus or to Jesus. They who refer it to Lazarus suppose this to be the meaning: “Let us go and die, for what have we to hope for if Jesus returns into Judea? Lately they attempted to stone him, and now they will put him to death, and we also, like Lazarus, shall be dead.” This... read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - John 11:14-16

John 11:14-16. Then said Jesus plainly That he might not hold them any longer in suspense, or permit them to remain under a mistake; Lazarus is indeed dead: and As I could not have permitted this to have happened in my presence, I am glad for your sakes That your faith may be more fully confirmed, by a further remarkable display of my divine power; that I was not there That I was not in Judea before he died; for had I been there, and recovered him, your faith in me, as the Messiah,... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - John 11:1-44

BACK TO JUDEA116. Resurrection of Lazarus (John 11:1-44)While Jesus was still in the region between the Jordan and Jerusalem, he heard that his friend Lazarus, who lived in Bethany, was seriously ill. Jesus did not hurry to Bethany, because he knew that Lazarus was already dead. By raising him to life, Jesus would give unmistakable evidence of his unity with the Father (John 11:1-6).After waiting two days, Jesus decided to set out for Bethany. The disciples tried to stop him, fearing that the... read more
