Note 1 topic: writing-background
In this verse John briefly stops telling about the events in the story in order to give background information about Jesus’ relationship with Lazarus and his sisters. Use the natural form in your language for expressing background information.
Note 2 topic: translate-kinship
τὴν ἀδελφὴν
¬the the sister
Because those who wrote scripture usually listed the names of siblings in order from oldest to youngest, the list in 11:5 suggests that Martha was the oldest and Lazarus was the youngest of the three siblings. If your language uses different words for sister depending on birth order, use the word for a younger sister here. Alternate translation: [younger sister]
11:1-57 The raising of Lazarus foreshadows Jesus’ own coming death and resurrection. Even the description of Lazarus’ grave (11:38, 44) prefigures Jesus’ grave (20:1, 7). Shortly after this event, Jesus was anointed for burial (12:3) and the hour of his glorification began (12:23).
Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
