John 11:1

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon

Read in KJV Bible Reader

John 11:1. Now a certain man was sick, named Lazarus, of Bethany, the town or Mary and her sister Martha.

In God’s book, towns are most remarkable for saints that dwell in them. "The town of Mary and her sister Martha." A day will come when a city shall be more illustrious for a saint than for a Caesar - be more renowned for deeds of faith than for deeds of battle. It was "the town of Mary and her sister Martha."
