Characters in Scripture
Martha, the sister of the dead man said, by this time there is a bad odor, for he has been there four days.
Jesus said, Lazarus, come out! The dead man came out, his hands and feet wrapped with strips of linen, and a cloth around his face.
Jesus said to them, Take off the grave clothes and let him go. (John 11:39b, 43b-44)
