Commentary on John 11:32
Mary's words exactly echo Martha's (v. 21), suggesting the sisters discussed this repeatedly during Jesus' absence: 'If only He had been here.' Her falling at His feet demonstrates humility and worship, contrasting Martha's standing conversation. Mary's posture reflects her contemplative nature (Luke 10:39). Both sisters express identical faith and disappointment, showing how different personalities process identical grief. Jesus accepts both approaches—Martha's active dialogue and Mary's prostrate worship.
