SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 11:17–27: Jesus is the resurrection and the life

In this section, Jesus arrived in Bethany, where Lazarus and his sisters lived. His sister Martha came out to greet Jesus, and told him that if he had been there, Lazarus would still be alive. Jesus told her that Lazarus would rise again, but Martha thought that he was talking about the last day. Jesus then told her that he was the resurrection and the life, and that those who believed in him would never die. Martha then said that she believed that he was the Messiah, the Son of God.

Here are some other possible headings for this section:

Jesus told Martha that Lazarus would live again

Those who believe in Jesus will never die

Paragraph 11:20–27

Martha went to meet Jesus and expressed her faith and trust in him.

11:23

“Your brother will rise again,” Jesus told her.

Jesus said to Martha, “Your^(sing) brother will rise from the dead.”
Jesus told Martha, “Your^(sing) brother will live once more.”

Your brother will rise again: This sentence indicates that Lazarus would return to life. It does not indicate whether that would be soon or in the distant future. Here are other ways to translate this sentence:

Your brother will rise to life. (GNT)

Your brother will come back to life again. (NET)

Your brother will rise and live again. (NCV)

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / pastforfuture

λέγει

˓is˒_saying

Here John uses the present tense in past narration in order to call attention to a development in the story.

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

ἀναστήσεται ὁ ἀδελφός σου

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: λέγει αὐτῇ Ὁ Ἰησοῦς Ἀναστήσεται ὁ ἀδελφός σοῦ)

Here, rise again is an idiom that refers to a died person becoming alive again. If this might confuse your readers, you could express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [Your brother will become alive again]

Note 3 topic: translate-kinship

ὁ ἀδελφός

the brother

See how you translated brother in 11:2.
