18. Bethany was less than two miles from Jerusalem,
19. and many of the Judeans had come to Martha and Miriam to console them about their brother.
20. When Martha heard that Yeshua was coming, she went out to meet Him; but Miriam sat in the house.
21. Martha said to Yeshua, “Master, if You had been here, my brother wouldn’t have died!
22. But I know, even now, that whatever You may ask of God, He will give You.”
23. Yeshua said to her, “Your brother will rise again.”
24. Martha said to Him, “I know, he will rise again in the resurrection on the last day.”
25. Yeshua said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life! Whoever believes in Me, even if he dies, shall live.
26. And whoever lives and believes in Me shall never die. Do you believe this?”
27. She says to Him, “Yes, Lord, I believe that you are the Messiah, Ben-Elohim who has come into the world.”
28. After she said this, she left and secretly told her sister Miriam, “The Teacher is here, and He’s calling for you.”
29. As soon as Miriam heard, she quickly got up and was coming to Him.
30. Now Yeshua had not yet come into the village, but was still in the place where Martha had met Him.
