Alexander MacLaren's Expositions of Holy Scripture - John 11:43-44

John THE OPEN GRAVE AT BETHANY THE SEVENTH MIRACLE IN JOHN’S GOSPEL THE RAISING OF LAZARUS Joh_11:43 - Joh_11:44 . The series of our Lord’s miracles before the Passion, as recorded in this Gospel, is fitly closed with the raising of Lazarus. It crowns the whole, whether we regard the greatness of the fact, the manner of our Lord’s working, the minuteness and richness of the accompanying details, the revelation of our Lord’s heart, the consolations which it suggests to sorrowing spirits, or... read more

John THE OPEN GRAVE AT BETHANY Joh_11:30 - Joh_11:45 . Why did Jesus stay outside Bethany and summon Martha and Mary to come to Him? Apparently that He might keep Himself apart from the noisy crowd of conventional mourners whose presence affronted the majesty and sanctity of sorrow, and that He might speak to the hearts of the two real mourners. A divine decorum forbade Him to go to the house. The Life-bringer keeps apart. His comforts are spoken in solitude. He reverenced grief. How... read more

John CAIAPHAS Joh_11:49 - Joh_11:50 . The resurrection of Lazarus had raised a wave of popular excitement. Any stir amongst the people was dangerous, especially at the Passover time, which was nigh at hand, when Jerusalem would be filled with crowds of men, ready to take fire from any spark that might fall amongst them. So a hasty meeting of the principal ecclesiastical council of the Jews was summoned, in order to dismiss the situation, and concert measures for repressing the nascent... read more

the Sympathy of Jesus John 11:28-35 It is not to be wondered at that the sisters and their friends wept as they stood beside the grave; but why did Jesus weep? He knew what He had come to do. He had come for the express purpose of turning their tears into joy. He wept for human frailty-that man’s life is an handbreadth and his years as a tale that is told. He wept in sympathy with human sorrow, because He realized that the scene in which He was taking part was a sample of myriads more. He... read more

Victory over Death John 11:36-44 1. The Lord had been praying about this matter before He came to the grave: “ Father, I thank thee that thou hast heard me. ”Notice that past tense. Perhaps He had done so when He first received the news of Lazarus’ sickness. He had prayed and had received the assurance that His prayer was answered. When He started back across the Jordan, it was with the full assurance that Lazarus would be raised to life. 2. He was conscious, also, of a life of unceasing... read more

the Innocent for the Guilty John 11:45-57 The friends of the family who had come to lament with them, were disposed toward Jesus and believed; but the mere spectators hastened with the news, to inflame the hatred of the Pharisees. The Romans dreaded the power acquired by permanent office, and often exchanged one high priest for another. Hence the expression, being high priest that year. By his vote Caiaphas may be said to have appointed and sacrificed his victim, who in that memorable year... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - John 11:1-57

Here we have the account of the last sign wrought by Jesus as recorded by John, namely, the raising of Lazarus. Very beautiful in this connection is the depiction of the sorrow of the sisters, and our Lord's method of dealing with each of them in turn. His approach to the grave revealed some of the deepest things in His own attitude. He was troubled in the presence of the sin and unbelief which had its final expression in death. Nevertheless, He acted with complete authority, and as a sign of... read more

The Raising of Lazarus John 11:1-44 INTRODUCTORY WORDS 1. Some ideas concerning the cause of sickness. (1) The ancients thought that sickness was the result of sin. The Book of Job goes into detail concerning the sickness and suffering of one of God's greatest men. When Job's three friends heard that he was sick they came to comfort him. However, poor comfort they proved to be. Each of them proclaimed three discourses condemning Job. In each of these discourses, the wise men of the East... read more

Sickness, Death, and Resurrection John 11:3-43 INTRODUCTORY WORDS The resurrection of Christ is the usual message of Easter. However, we must remember that indissolubly linked with the resurrection of our Lord is the resurrection of all of His saints. It is also well for us to remember that sickness and death are also linked with the resurrection. Sickness and the collapse of the physical man leads to death, and the resurrection is the glorious conquest over the reign of death. 1. The story... read more

James Nisbet's Church Pulpit Commentary - John 11:35

THE TEARS OF CHRIST‘Jesus wept.’ John 11:35 The emotions of Christ were perfectly true to nature. The Saviour dissolved in tears, presents a spectacle of apparent effeminacy of character not in keeping with His dignity and greatness. Yet, was it really so? Tears are not always marks of weakness, they are oftener evidences of power. Springing from the depths of the soul, they are sometimes the exponents of great thoughts, of mighty purposes, of manly feelings, and have a language and a meaning... read more
