43 Now when He had said these things, He cried with a loud voice, “Lazarus, come forth!”
44 And he who had died came out bound hand and foot with agraveclothes, and bhis face was wrapped with a cloth. Jesus said to them, “Loose him, and let him go.”
The Plot to Kill Jesus
45 Then many of the Jews who had come to Mary, aand had seen the things Jesus did, believed in Him.
46 But some of them went away to the Pharisees and atold them the things Jesus did.
47 aThen the chief priests and the Pharisees gathered a council and said, b“What shall we do? For this Man works many signs.
48 If we let Him alone like this, everyone will believe in Him, and the Romans will come and take away both our place and nation.”
49 And one of them, aCaiaphas, being high priest that year, said to them, “You know nothing at all,
50 anor do you consider that it is expedient for1 us that one man should die for the people, and not that the whole nation should perish.”
