JOHN 11:14 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“Then said Jesus unto them plainly, Lazarus is dead.”
So then he told them plainly, 'Lazarus is dead' — Jesus abandons the metaphor and speaks directly: 'Lazarus is dead' (tethnēken, he has died). The bluntness of the statement contrasts with the euphemistic language that preceded it, ensuring there is no further misunderstanding about the gravity of the situation.
