Jesus in Bethany

¹⁷ When Jesus arrived, he learned that Lazarus had already been dead and in the tomb for four days. ¹⁸ Bethany was about two miles from Jerusalem. ¹⁹ Many of the Jews had come there to comfort Martha and Mary about their brother.

²⁰ When Martha heard that Jesus was coming, she went out to meet him, but Mary stayed home.
