Commentary on John 11:28
Martha returns and calls Mary secretly, using the term 'Master' (Didaskalos/Teacher), showing Jesus' teaching role. The secrecy may reflect desire for private conversation or concern about the hostile Jews present. Martha's words 'he calleth for thee' suggest Jesus had made a request, though not recorded. Her role as messenger shows Martha's servant heart. The sisters' different approaches continue—Martha intercepts, then brings Mary. This demonstrates complementary gifts in Christ's service.
