A comprehensive review of this incident. It did indeed "confirm and even inflame the murderous determination of the enemies of Jesus." Not content with merely determining to kill Jesus, they even decided to kill Lazarus as well in order to do away with the undeniable evidence of this, arguably the mightiest of Jesus' miracles. Such sheer wickedness is breathtaking.

I've heard it said that the reason Jesus waited as long as he did to return to Bethany is because there was a tradition among the Jews that the spirit of a deceased person would stay around the corpse for as long as three days before moving on. If Lazarus had been resurrected within the first three days the tradition would have been credited rather than the Savior. Interesting thought.
