0:00.0 | Hey Bible readers, I'm Tara Lee Cobble, and I'm your host for the Bible Recap. |
0:12.7 | John is the only gospel writer who records the remarkable story we read today. |
0:17.3 | Jesus raised lots of people from the dead, but since John was a part of Jesus inner circle, |
0:21.7 | it's possible that this particular instance was more of a big deal to him personally, |

1:12.1 | It's just about two miles east of Jerusalem, |
1:14.6 | but Jesus knows it's not time for him to die. |
