But Jesus had not said to him that he does not die, but, "If I desire him to remain until I come, what is it to you?" Then went this saying abroad among the brothers, that that disciple should not die: yet Jesus said not to him, He shall not die; but, If I will that he tarry till I come, what is that to you?
