Contextual Overview

17Jesus, therefore, having come, found him having already been four days in the tomb. 18And Bethany was near to Jerusalem, about fifteen stadia off, 19and many of the Jews had come to Martha and Mary, that they might comfort them concerning their brother; 20Martha, therefore, when she heard that Jesus comes, met Him, and Mary kept sitting in the house. 21Martha, therefore, said to Jesus, "Lord, if You had been here, my brother had not died; 22but even now, I have known that whatever You may ask of God, God will give to You"; 23Jesus says to her, "Your brother will rise again."24Martha says to Him, "I have known that he will rise again in the resurrection in the last day"; 25Jesus said to her, "I AM the resurrection, and the life; he who is believing in Me, even if he may die, will live; 26and everyone who is living and believing in Me will not die—throughout the age;

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Jesus saith unto her, thy brother shall rise again. Christ knew what she meant, and accordingly gave her an answer, and yet in such general terms, that she could not tell whether his meaning was, that he should rise now, or at the general resurrection.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Thy brother shall rise again - Martha had spoken of the power of Jesus. He said nothing of himself in reply. It was not customary for him to speak of himself, unless it was demanded by necessity. It cannot be doubted that by rising again, here, Jesus referred to the act which he was about to perform; but as Martha understood it, referring to the future resurrection, it was full of consolation. The idea that departed friends shall rise to glory is one that fills the mind with joy, and one which we owe only to the religion of Christ.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 23. Thy brother shall rise again. — That is, directly; for it was by raising him immediately from the dead that he intended to comfort her.
