The Pulpit Commentary - John 11:21-27

Martha's faith. We have here— I. HER FAITH MANIFESTED . 1. In its strength . In her conversation with Jesus there axe proofs of a genuine and strong faith in him. 2. In its weakness . Though genuine, and strong in some of its features, it is still weak and incomplete. In her faith: 3. In its private struggles . In the language of Martha there are indications of the private struggles of her faith. II. HER FAITH STRENGTHENED . 1. By its own... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - John 11:25-26

Jesus said to her, I am the Resurrection . Not merely that God will give me what I ask, but that I am in some sense already his gift to man of resurrection , inasmuch as I am that of Life . (So Luthardt and Godet, but not Meyer, who makes ζωή the positive result of ἀνάστασις .) By taking humanity into his Person, Christ reveals the permanence of human individuality, that is, of such individuality as is in union with himself. He associates ( John 14:6 ) "the Life" which he... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - John 11:25-26

The living and life-giving Lord. The confession of Martha was a good and sound one. Yet it is clear that our Lord did not wish her to rest in her creed . He pointed her to himself as the Sum and Substance of all true beliefs, as the Object of all true faith. Creeds are good for the memory, Christ is good for the heart. I. LIFE IS IN CHRIST . The miracles of raising from the dead which Jesus wrought were intended not only for the assuagement of human sorrow, but for the... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - John 11:25

I am the resurrection - I am the author or the cause of the resurrection. It so depends on my power and will, that it may be said that I am the resurrection itself. This is a most expressive way of saying that the whole doctrine of the resurrection came from him, and the whole power to effect it was his. In a similar manner he is said to be made of God unto us “wisdom and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption,” 1 Corinthians 1:30.And the life - John 1:4. As the resurrection of all... read more

John 11:25. Jesus said, I am the resurrection The author and cause of the resurrection of the dead; and the life The source of life, natural, spiritual, and eternal; of the living, both in the present world and in the world to come. Martha believed that in answer to his prayer God would give any thing; but he would have her to know that by his power he could effect any thing. Martha believed a resurrection to take place at the last day; but Christ tells her he had now the power whereby it... 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

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - John 11:25

Jesus saith unto her, I am the resurrection and the life: he that believeth on me, though he die, yet shall he live; and whosoever liveth and believeth on me shall never die. Believest thou this?In this lies the full explanation of Jesus' words, "If a man keep my word, he shall never see death" (John 8:51). Such statements of Jesus never were intended to deny the necessity of physical death. This is one of the most beloved passages in all of the sacred Scriptures.I AM THE RESURRECTION AND THE... read more

Thomas Coke Commentary on the Holy Bible - John 11:23-26

John 11:23-26. Jesus saith unto her, Thy brother shall rise again.— Our Lord's meaning was, that he should be raised immediately, (see John 11:40.) according to her desire; yet, as the thing was so great, and beyond even her own expectation, she durst not understand him in any sense that favoured her wishes: (see Joh 11:24 and on Matthew 28:17.) therefore, to cherish her weak faith, and, as it were, to raise her by gradual steps to the belief and acknowledgment of his sovereign power, our Lord... read more

Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible - John 11:25

25. Jesus said, I am the resurrection and the life—"The whole power to restore, impart, and maintain life, resides in Me." (See on :-; John 5:21). What higher claim to supreme divinity than this grand saying can be conceived? he that believeth in me, though . . . dead . . . shall he live—that is, The believer's death shall be swallowed up in life, and his life shall never sink into death. As death comes by sin, it is His to dissolve it; and as life flows through His righteousness, it is His to... read more
