Contextual Overview

33 When Jesus saw her weeping, and the Jews weeping, who had come with her, he was moved in his spirit, and was greatly disturbed. 34 And he said, Where have you laid him? They said to him, Our Lord, come and see. 35 And Jesus was in tears. 36 The Jews then said, Look, how much he loved him! 37 Some of them said, Could not this man, who opened the eyes of that blind man, have also kept this man from dying? 38 As Jesus was disturbed in himself because of them, he came to the tomb. That tomb was a cave, and a stone was placed at the entrance. 39 Jesus said, Take away this stone. Martha, the sister of the dead man, said to him, My Lord, he is already disfigured, for he is dead four days. 40 Jesus said to her, Did not I say to you that if you believe, you will see the glory of God? 41 So they took away the stone. And Jesus lifted his eyes upwards, and said, O Father, I thank you for you have heard me, 42 And I know that you always hear me; but I say these things just because of this people who stand around, so that they may believe that you have sent me.

Bible Verse Review
  from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge

John 1:39, John 20:2, Matthew 28:6, Mark 15:47, Mark 16:6

Reciprocal: Judges 10:16 - his soul

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And said, where have ye laid him?.... This he might say as man, though he, as the omniscient God, knew where he was laid; and that it might appear there was no juggle and contrivance between him, and the relations of the deceased; and to raise some expectation of what he intended to do; and to draw the Jews thither, that they might be witnesses of the miracle he was about to work.

They say unto him; That is, Martha and Mary,

Lord, come and see; it being but a little way off.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Where have ye laid him? - Jesus spoke as a man. In all this transaction he manifested the deep sympathies of a man; and though he who could raise the dead man up could also know where he was, yet he chose to lead them to the grave by inducing them to point the way, and hence, he asked this question.
