SCRIPTURE

"and said, Where have ye laid him? They say unto him, Lord, come and see." — John 11:34 (ASV)

And said, where have you laid him ?
&c.] 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.
