Jesus returned to Judea to "...wake him up", John 11:11. Lazarus was the brother of Martha and Mary, who poured perfume on Jesus and wiped His feet with her hair in John 12:3. It is not explained why these events do not seem to be in chronological order in the Bible.

24 Moving on to the third 'I am Statement' by Jesus, we come to John 10:9. Complete the missing word from the quote: "I am the _______. If anyone enters by Me, he will be saved, and will go in and out and find pasture." (The NIV uses a different word.)
Answer: door

The missing word is 'door'. (In the NIV, Jesus says He is the 'gate'.) In John 9, Jesus was involved in an exchange with the Pharisees and John 10 is a continuation of that exchange.

In the the first six verses of the chapter, Jesus states He is the true shepherd and makes references to sheep being cared for and protected.

Then in Verses 7 to 10, Jesus states: "'Most assuredly, I say to you, I am the door of the sheep. All who ever came before Me are thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not hear them. I am the door. If anyone enters by Me, he will be saved, and will go in and out and find pasture. The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly'."
    Your options: [ answer ] [ truth ] [ door ] [ way ]

26 According to John 8:3, the teachers of the law and the Pharisees brought in a woman caught in adultery. What did they make her do?
Answer: Stand before the group.

They made the woman stand before the group. Notes in the NIV Study Bible state "the woman's accusers must have been especially eager to humiliate her, since they could have kept her in private custody while they spoke to Jesus."

27 In verses 3 to 6, Jesus hears word from the two sisters that their brother Lazarus is sick. What does Jesus decide to do?
Answer: He stays where he was two more days.

Jesus opted to stay put for two more days. At first blush, it might appear Jesus was uncaring about the plight of Lazarus. However, Scripture reveals his illness was all part of a master plan. In verse 4, Christ states Lazarus' sickness "is not unto death." In the same verse, Jesus goes on to suggest Lazarus must first die so God may be glorified through his resurrection from the dead. In verse 11, Jesus states "our friend Lazarus sleeps, but I go that I may wake him up."
