Yoḥanan (John) 11:1-13

Yoḥanan (John) 11:1-13 TS2009

And a certain one was sick, El‛azar from Bĕyth Anyah, the village of Miryam and her sister Martha. (Now it was Miryam who anointed the Master with perfume and wiped His feet with her hair, whose brother El‛azar was sick). Therefore the sisters sent to Him, saying, “Master, see, he whom You love is sick.” But when יהושע heard, He said, “This sickness is not unto death, but for the esteem of Elohim, so that the Son of Elohim might be esteemed by it.” Now יהושע loved Martha and her sister and El‛azar. Therefore, when He heard that he was sick, then indeed He stayed at the place where He was, two more days. Then after this He said to the taught ones, “Let us go back to Yehuḏah.” The taught ones said to Him, “Rabbi, the Yehuḏim were but now seeking to stone You, and are You going back there?” יהושע answered, “Are there not twelve hours in the day? If anyone walks in the day, he does not stumble, because he sees the light of this world. But if anyone walks in the night, he stumbles, because the light is not in him. He said this, and after that He said to them, “Our friend El‛azar has fallen asleep, but I am going there, to wake him up.” Therefore the taught ones said to Him, “Master, if he has fallen asleep he shall recover.” But יהושע had spoken about his death, whereas they thought that He spoke of taking rest in sleep.
