John [Yah is gracious] 11:41-53

⁴¹So they took away the stone from the place where the dead man was lying. Yeshua Salvation lifted up his eyes, and said, “Abba ·Father familiar, Dear Dad·, I thank you that you listened to me.

⁴²I know that you always listen to me, but because of the multitude that stands around I said this, that they may believe that you sent me.”

⁴³When he had said this, he cried with a loud voice, “Lazarus Help of God, come out!”

⁴⁴He who was dead came out, bound hand and foot with wrappings, and his face was wrapped around with a cloth. Yeshua Salvation said to them, “Free him, and let him go.”

⁴⁵Therefore many of the Jews Praisers, who came to Mary Rebellion and saw what Yeshua Salvation did, believed in him.

⁴⁶But some of them went away to the Pharisees Separated, and told them the things which Yeshua Salvation had done.

⁴⁷The chief priests therefore and the Pharisees Separated gathered a council, and said, “What are we doing? For this man does many signs.

⁴⁸If we leave him alone like this, everyone will believe in him, and the Romans People from Town of flowing waters will come and take away both our place and our nation.”

⁴⁹But a certain one of them, Caiaphas Rock that hollows itself out, being high priest that year, said to them, “You know nothing at all,

⁵⁰nor do you consider that it is advantageous for us that one man should die for the people, and that the whole nation not perish.”

⁵¹Now he didn’t say this of himself, but being high priest that year, he prophesied that Yeshua Salvation would die for the nation,

⁵²and not for the nation only, but that he might also gather together into one the children of God who are scattered abroad.

⁵³So from that day forward they took counsel that they might put him to death.
