Johannes 11,37

DoubtGrief

35 Jesus gråt.

36 Da sa de tilstedeværende: "Se hvor Han brydde seg om ham!"

Men andre spurte: "Kunne ikke Han som ga den blinde synet ha forhindret denne mannens død?"

38 Jesus, igjen dypt beveget, kom til graven. Det var en hule med en stein lagt over inngangen.

39 "Ta bort steinen," sa Han. "Men, Herre," sa Marta, den avdødes søster, "på dette tidspunktet er det en vond lukt, for han har vært der i fire dager."

Here the Bible tells a story about someone else. Ask yourself what it can say to us today. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
