At the Passover they enquire after him, and lay wait for him. After she had said this This phrase refers to the preceding conversation between Martha and Jesus, where Martha expresses her faith in Jesus as the Messiah. The Greek word for "after" (μετά, meta) indicates a transition, suggesting a shift in the narrative. This transition is significant as it moves from a private confession of faith to a more public action. The context here is crucial, as it sets the stage for the unfolding miracle of Lazarus's resurrection, emphasizing the importance of faith preceding divine action. she went back and called her sister Mary aside The Teacher is here she said and is asking for you The Master is come (better, is here), and calleth for thee.--The word here rendered "Master" is not the Hebrew Rabbi (comp. Note on John 1:38), but the Greek word answering to our "Teacher." (Comp. John 13:13-14.) He is not named, but Mary at once knows who is intended. (Comp. Mark 14:14.) Perhaps the name was that by which they usually spoke of Him who had been their Teacher. We are not told that our Lord sent for Mary, but we must assume that Martha conveyed the message which she herself had heard. . . .

Jesus gave the commission to fetch Mary, as is obvious from the words of Martha which follow. The term "secretly" (λάθρα), when elsewhere used, precedes the verb with which it is associated, and therefore here it is joined with εἰποῦσα, whispering to her, lest the hostile Jews should hear and intercept the interview. The Master (the Teacher) used absolutely (cf. John 13:13) - is here, and calleth for thee. Sacred summons! Martha expected (as Euthymius suggested) that some blessing might come from his words.Parallel Commentaries ... Greek [After]Καὶ (Kai) Conjunction Strong's 2532: And, even, also, namely.
