A:Luke and John are the only gospels that mention sisters called Mary and Martha, and also the only gospels that mention Lazarus. Luke contains a brief story of Jesus visiting the sisters, while Lazarus is in a parable that mentions his resurrection hypothetically (Luke 16:20-31). John wrote an important episode, in which Jesus visited the sisters and resurrected their dead brother, Lazarus (John 11:43-44).
