Ryle, J.C.
Sickness (Ryle)
Description
"The words which I specially dwell upon in this chapter are singular affecting and instructive. They record the message which Martha and Mary sent to Jesus when their brother Lazarus was sick:: "Lord, behold he whom Thou lovest is sick." That message was short and simple. Yet almost every word is deeply suggestive."- J.C. Ryle
