Why did Jesus Cry?
Why did Jesus Cry? By Bob and Mary Ann Wray My husband, Bob, just dropped a revelation nugget on me from Heaven: 1 Thess 4: 13-18 and John 11: 1-35... He said to me, when Jesus wept upon arriving at Bethany after delaying for several days, it wasn't because he was mourning. It wasn’t because Lazarus was dead. It was because the people had no hope! They didn't understand the "resurrection" of the dead! I never heard it put that way before. That drove me to the scripture to dig out more treasures of revelation knowledge of Jesus Christ! Adding on to this insight I read the same passages but within their whole context and saw a few more things… 1. That is the reason why Jesus deliberately delayed two days after he got the news of Lazarus sickness and said in verse 4, "This illness is not unto death but for the glory of God so that the Son of God may be glorified through it.” He was getting prepared to work the greatest Miracle before His crucifixion.
