Commentary on John 11:22

Theological / Devotional

Thou wilt ask. Martha acknowledged Jesus to be the Son of God (v. 27), and believed that God always heard the petitions of His Son. It is not certain to what extent she dared entertain the hope that Jesus would raise her brother to life. She had doubtless heard of the raising of the young maid to life (Mark 5:35-43), and of the restoration of the widow’s son (Luke 7:11-15). She felt assured that Jesus would do something to bring consolation.
