Hope in the Resurrection This passage foreshadows the resurrection of Lazarus and ultimately, the resurrection of Jesus, offering believers hope in eternal life.(27) She saith unto him, Yea, Lord.--This is her assent to the question He asked. She believed all that He had told her. It is not that she expresses her belief, in answer to His question, in the remainder of this verse. The answer is simply "Yea, Lord." Then she proceeds to give the foundation on which that answer rested. I believe that thou art the Christ.--The word means, "I have believed, and do now;" "I have convinced myself, and do believe." But this being so, convinced that He is the Messiah, she has in that conviction the ground for believing all that He has now taught her of Resurrection and Life.
