John 12:12

New Century Version

The next day a great crowd who had come to Jerusalem for the Passover Feast heard that Jesus was coming there.

See the chapter Copy

Six days before the Passover Feast, Jesus went to Bethany, where Lazarus lived. (Lazarus is the man Jesus raised from the dead.)

Many people went out to meet Jesus, because they had heard about this miracle.

A large crowd of people heard that Jesus was in Bethany. So they went there to see not only Jesus but Lazarus, whom Jesus raised from the dead.
