📚 Contexto Histórico
In the Gospel of John, this event takes place in Bethany, where Jesus arrives to visit Mary and Martha after their brother Lazarus has died and been buried for four days. Jewish burial customs at the time involved wrapping the body in cloth and sealing it in a tomb, and decomposition in a warm climate would cause a noticeable odor, which is why Martha expresses concern. This moment builds tension in the narrative, highlighting Jesus' authority over death as part of his ministry leading to his own resurrection.
