<p>11:39<i> Jesus said: Take away the stone. Martha, the sister of him that was dead, said to him: Lord, by this time the body stinks. For he has been dead four days</i>- <i>&nbsp;</i>Female concern about taking the stone away from the tomb was another point of contact with the Lord's resurrection. The Lord's body did not &quot;see corruption&quot; because of the huge amount of expensive spices placed upon it, but with Lazarus, the body was already decomposed. The contrast with the Lord's corpse was perhaps to make the point that <i>His</i> body did not &quot;see corruption&quot;. And although our corpses do &quot;see corruption&quot;, this is no barrier to resurrection.</p>
