From the Scholars: Barnes' Notes

Verse 42. And many believed, etc. A similar effect followed when Jesus raised up Lazarus. See Joh 12:11. This was the first miracle of this kind that was performed by the apostles. The effect was, that many believed. It was not merely a work of benevolence in restoring to life one who contributed largely to the comfort of the poor, but it was used as a means of extending and establishing, as it was designed doubtless to do, the kingdom of the Saviour. {e} "many believed" Joh 12:11 __________________________________________________________________
