82 EARLY WISDOM GOSPELSWho believes in the son has eternal life,
but one who disbelieves the son will not see life.
The wrath of god remains upon him."(Chapter 11)
THE RESURRECTION OF ELEAZAR
There was a man who was sick, Eleazar^36 from Bethany, from the village of
Miryam^37 and Martha her sister. It was Miryam who anointed the lord with oil
of myrrh and wiped his feet with her hair. Her brother Eleazar was sick. So the
sisters sent word to him, saying, "Lord, look, one whom you care for is sick."
When Yeshua heard this, he said,
"This sickness is moving not to death
but to the glory of god,
so that through it the son of god
may be glorified."
Now, Yeshua loved Martha and his sister and Eleazar. So when he heard
that he was sick, he remained in the place where he was for two days. After this
he said to his students,
"Let us go to Yehuda again."
His students said to him, "Rabbi, the Jews were just now trying to stone
you and are you going there again?"
Yeshua replied,
"Are there not twelve hours in the day?
Whoever walks around in the day does not stumble
since one sees the light of this world.
Whoever walks around in the night does stumble
since the light is not in that person."
These things he said, and then he told them,
"Our friend Eleazar has fallen asleep,
but I am going there to awaken him."
