John 11:15

In context

13Jesus had been speaking of his death, but they thought he meant ordinary sleep. 14So then Jesus told them plainly, “Lazarus has died, 15and for your sake I am glad I was not there, so that you may believe. But let us go to him.” 16Then Thomas (the Twin) said to his fellow disciples, “Let us go too — and die with him.” 17When Jesus arrived, he found that Lazarus had already been four days in the tomb.
