Yehoshua however did speak about his death; and they did think, that he speaks about the restful slumber of sleep.
has he said: go away! because this little girl is not died, she sleeps only. and they have themselves laughed at him.
and all have weep and wail over her; he however has said: weep not, she is not died, she sleeps only.
this did he speak, and after that says he to them: El'azar, our friend is asleep become; but I go, so that him to wake up from sleep.
the disciples have therefore said to him: if he has fall asleep, will he healed to become.
therefore did Yehoshua then to them say quite openly: El'azar has died.
