Contextual Overview
1 A man named Lazarus was sick. He lived in the town of Bethany, where Mary and her sister Martha lived. 2 Mary was the woman who later put perfume on the Lord and wiped his feet with her hair. Mary's brother was Lazarus, the man who was now sick. 3 So Mary and Martha sent someone to tell Jesus, "Lord, the one you love is sick." 4 When Jesus heard this, he said, "This sickness will not end in death. It is for the glory of God, to bring glory to the Son of God." 5 Jesus loved Martha and her sister and Lazarus. 6 But when he heard that Lazarus was sick, he stayed where he was for two more days. 7 Then Jesus said to his followers, "Let's go back to Judea." 8 The followers said, "But Teacher, some people there tried to stone you to death only a short time ago. Now you want to go back there?" 9 Jesus answered, "Are there not twelve hours in the day? If anyone walks in the daylight, he will not stumble, because he can see by this world's light. 10 But if anyone walks at night, he stumbles because there is no light to help him see."

Gill's Notes on the Bible
Then said Jesus unto them plainly,.... Without a figure, when he perceived they did not understand him, and yet it was a very easy and usual metaphor which he had made use of; but such was the present stupidity of their minds, that they did not take in his meaning: wherefore, without reproaching them with it, he said to them in so many words,
Lazarus is dead. The Persic version reads, "Lazarus is dead indeed", as he really was.
