John 11:6 in context

The verses around it, from John 11.

2 (Mary, whose brother Lazarus was sick, was to anoint the Lord with perfume and wipe His feet with her hair.)

3 So the sisters sent word to Jesus, “Lord, the one You love is sick.”

4 When Jesus heard this, He said, “This sickness will not end in death. No, it is for the glory of God, so that the Son of God may be glorified through it.”

5 Now Jesus loved Martha and her sister and Lazarus.

6 So on hearing that Lazarus was sick, He stayed where He was for two days,

7 and then He said to the disciples, “Let us go back to Judea.”

8 “Rabbi,” they replied, “the Jews just tried to stone You, and You are going back there?”

9 Jesus answered, “Are there not twelve hours of daylight? If anyone walks in the daytime, he will not stumble, because he sees by the light of this world.

10 But if anyone walks at night, he will stumble, because he has no light.”
