Very similar words are found in the account of the death of Lazarus, a personal friend of Jesus. Instead of comforting the man's sisters by saying that his soul had gone to heaven, the Lord Jesus spoke of the day of resurrection: "Thy brother shall rise again".
Maneno haya kabisa yapatikana katika kifo cha Lazaro, rafiki yake Yesu. Badala ya kumfariji dada mtu kwa kusema kwamba roho yake imekwenda mbinguni, Bwana Yesu alisema siku ya ufufuo: "Ndugu yako atafufuka".
