THE MESSAGE
The moment she heard that, she jumped up and ran out to him. Jesus had not yet entered the town but was still at the place where Martha had met him. When her sympathizing Jewish friends saw Mary run off, they followed her, thinking she was on her way to the tomb to weep there. Mary came to where Jesus was waiting and fell at his feet, saying, "Master, if only you had been here, my brother would not have died."
Simplified Cowboy Version
Mary got up at once and went outside.

Contextual Overview

17 So Jesus came to Bethany, and he found that he had been four days in the tomb. 18 Now Bethany was towards Jerusalem, a distance of about two miles. 19 And many Jews kept coming to Martha and Mary, to comfort their hearts concerning their brother. 20 When Martha heard that Jesus had come, she went out to meet him; but Mary sat in the house. 21 Then Martha said to Jesus, My Lord, if you had been here, my brother would not have died. 22 But even now I know that whatever you ask of God, he will give you. 23 Jesus said to her, Your brother will rise up. 24 Martha said to him, I know he will rise up in the resurrection at the last day. 25 Jesus said to her, I am the resurrection and the life; he who believes in me, even though he die, he shall live. 26 And whoever is alive and believes in me shall never die. Do you believe this?

Gill's Notes on the Bible

As soon as she heard that,.... That Christ was come, and inquired for her, and wanted to see her:

she arose quickly, and came unto him; having an equal affection for him as her sister Martha; and which she showed, by leaving her comforters at once, and by making the haste she did, to another and better comforter: both Martha and Mary, out of their great love to Christ, break through the rule for mourners mentioned in note,

:-, of not going out of the door of the house the first week of mourning.
