John [Yah is gracious]. 11. Now a certain man was sick, Lazarus Help of God from Bethany House of affliction, of the village of Mary Rebellion and her sister, Martha Lady mistress, Strong bitterness. It was that Mary Rebellion who had anointed the Lord with ointment, and wiped his feet with her hair, whose brother, Lazarus Help of God, was sick. The sisters therefore sent to him, saying, “Lord, behold, he for whom you phileo ·affectionately love, have high regard for· is sick.” But when Yeshua Salvation heard it, he said, “This sickness is not to death, but for the glory of God, that God’s Son may be glorified by it.” Now Yeshua Salvation had agapao ·total devotion love· towards Martha Lady mistress, Strong bitterness, and her sister, and Lazarus Help of God. When therefore he heard that he was sick, he stayed two days in the place where he was. Then after this he said to the disciples, “Let’s go into Judea Praise again.” The disciples told him, “Rabbi ·Teacher·, the Jews Praisers were just trying to stone you, and are you going there again?” Yeshua Salvation answered, “Are not there twelve hours of daylight? If a man walks in the day, he does not stumble, because he sees the light of this world. But if a man walks in the night, he stumbles, because the light is not in him.” He said these things, and after that, he said to them, “Our friend, Lazarus Help of God, has fallen asleep, but I am going so that I may awake him out of sleep.” The disciples therefore said, “Lord, if he has fallen asleep, he will recover.” Now Yeshua Salvation had spoken of his death, but they thought that he spoke of taking rest in sleep. So Yeshua Salvation said to them plainly then, “Lazarus Help of God is dead. I am glad for your sakes that I was not there, so that you may believe. Nevertheless, let’s go to him.” Thomas Seeker of truth therefore, who is called Didymus Twin, said to his fellow disciples, “Let’s go also, that we may die with him.” So when Yeshua Salvation came, he found that he had been in the tomb four days already. Now Bethany House of affliction was near Jerusalem City of peace, about fifteen stadia away 2 mi; 2.8 km. Many of the Jews Praisers had joined the women around Martha Lady mistress, Strong bitterness and Mary Rebellion, to console them concerning their brother. Then when Martha Lady mistress, Strong bitterness heard that Yeshua Salvation was coming, she went and met him, but Mary Rebellion stayed in the house. Therefore Martha Lady mistress, Strong bitterness said to Yeshua Salvation, “Lord, if you would have been here, my brother wouldn’t have died. Even now I know that, whatever you ask of God, God will give you.” Yeshua Salvation said to her, “Your brother will rise again.” Martha Lady mistress, Strong bitterness said to him, “I know that he will rise again in the resurrection at the last day.” Yeshua Salvation said to her, “ Ena Na I AM (the Living God) the resurrection and the life. He who believes in me will still live, even if he dies. Whoever lives and believes in me will never die. Do you believe this?” She said to him, “Yes, Lord. I have come to believe that you are the Messiah Anointed one, God’s Son, he who comes into the world.” When she had said this, she went away, and called Mary Rebellion, her sister, secretly, saying, “The Teacher is here, and is calling you.” When she heard this, she arose quickly, and went to him. Now Yeshua Salvation had not yet come into the village, but was in the place where Martha Lady mistress, Strong bitterness met him. Then the Jews Praisers who were with her in the house, and were consoling her, when they saw Mary Rebellion, that she rose up quickly and went out, followed her, saying, “She is going to the tomb to weep there.” Therefore when Mary Rebellion came to where Yeshua Salvation was, and saw him, she fell down at his feet, saying to him, “Lord, if you would have been here, my brother wouldn’t have died.” When Yeshua Salvation therefore saw her weeping, and the Jews Praisers weeping who came with her, he groaned in the spirit, and was troubled, and said, “Where have you laid him?” They told him, “Lord, come and see.” Yeshua Salvation wept. The Jews Praisers therefore said, “See how much phileo ·affectionate love, high regard· he had for him!” Some of them said, “Couldn’t this man, who opened the eyes of him who was blind, have also kept this man from dying?” Yeshua Salvation therefore, again groaning in himself, came to the tomb. Now it was a cave, and a stone lay against it. Yeshua Salvation said, “Take away the stone.” Martha Lady mistress, Strong bitterness, the sister of him who was dead, said to him, “Lord, by this time there is a stench, for he has been dead four days.” Yeshua Salvation said to her, “Didn’t I tell you that if you believed, you would see God’s glory?” So they took away the stone from the place where the dead man was lying. Yeshua Salvation lifted up his eyes, and said, “Abba ·Father familiar, Dear Dad·, I thank you that you listened to me. I know that you always listen to me, but because of the multitude that stands around I said this, that they may believe that you sent me.” When he had said this, he cried with a loud voice, “Lazarus Help of God, come out!” He who was dead came out, bound hand and foot with wrappings, and his face was wrapped around with a cloth. Yeshua Salvation said to them, “Free him, and let him go.” Therefore many of the Jews Praisers, who came to Mary Rebellion and saw what Yeshua Salvation did, believed in him. But some of them went away to the Pharisees Separated, and told them the things which Yeshua Salvation had done. The chief priests therefore and the Pharisees Separated gathered a council, and said, “What are we doing? For this man does many signs. If we leave him alone like this, everyone will believe in him, and the Romans People from Town of flowing waters will come and take away both our place and our nation.” But a certain one of them, Caiaphas Rock that hollows itself out, being high priest that year, said to them, “You know nothing at all, nor do you consider that it is advantageous for us that one man should die for the people, and that the whole nation not perish.” Now he didn’t say this of himself, but being high priest that year, he prophesied that Yeshua Salvation would die for the nation, and not for the nation only, but that he might also gather together into one the children of God who are scattered abroad. So from that day forward they took counsel that they might put him to death. Yeshua Salvation therefore walked no more openly among the Jews Praisers, but departed from there into the country near the wilderness, to a city called Ephraim Fruit. He stayed there with his disciples. Now the Judean Person from Praise festival of Pesac ·Passover· was at hand, (the start of Nissan). Many went up from the country to Jerusalem City of peace before the Pesac ·Passover·, to purify themselves. Then they sought for Yeshua Salvation and spoke one with another, as they stood in the temple, “What do you think— that he is not coming to the feast at all?” Now the chief priests and the Pharisees Separated had commanded that if anyone knew where he was, he should report it, that they might seize him.
