Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

See commentary on John 11:39-44.


John 11:43-44

_ _ and when he had thus spoken, he cried with a loud voice — On one other occasion only did He this — on the cross. His last utterance was a “loud cry” (Matthew 27:50). “He shall not cry,” said the prophet, nor, in His ministry, did He. What a sublime contrast is this “loud cry” to the magical “whisperings” and “mutterings” of which we read in Isaiah 8:19; Isaiah 29:4 (as Grotius remarks)! It is second only to the grandeur of that voice which shall raise all the dead (John 5:28, John 5:29; 1 Thessalonians 4:16).


John 11:44

_ _ Jesus saith unto them, Loose him and let him go — Jesus will no more do this Himself than roll away the stone. The one was the necessary preparation for resurrection, the other the necessary sequel to it. THE LIFE-GIVING ACT ALONE HE RESERVES TO HIMSELF. So in the quickening of the dead to spiritual life, human instrumentality is employed first to prepare the way, and then to turn it to account.

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on John 11:33-44.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

John 11:44

And he came forth bound hand and foot with grave clothes — Which were wrapt round each hand and each foot, and his face was wrapt about with a napkin — If the Jews buried as the Egyptians did, the face was not covered with it, but it only went round the forehead, and under the chin; so that he might easily see his way.

bound:
"Swathed about with rollers" or bandages, κειριαις [Strong's G2750], long strips of linen, a few inches in breadth, brought round the σινδων [Strong's G4616], or sheet of linen in which the corpse was involved, and by which the αρωματα, or spices, were kept in contact with the flesh. In reply to sceptical objections, it is sufficient to observe, that he who could raise Lazarus from the dead, could, with a much less exertion of power, have so loosened or removed the bandages of his feet and legs as to have rendered it practicable for him to come forth. Tittman well observes, that Lazarus was restored not only to life but also to health, as appears from the alacrity of his motion; and this would constitute a new miracle.
