18 Bethany was a little less than two miles from Jerusalem.
19 Many Jews had come to comfort Martha and Mary after their brother’s death.
20 When Martha heard that Jesus was coming, she went to meet him, while Mary remained in the house.
21 Martha said to Jesus, "Lord, if you had been here, my brother wouldn’t have died.
22 Even now I know that whatever you ask God, God will give you."
23 Jesus told her, "Your brother will rise again."
24 Martha replied, "I know that he will rise in the resurrection on the last day."
