John 11:35 Meaning and Commentary

John 11:35

Jesus wept.
] As he was going along to the grave, see ( John 11:28 ) ; as he was meditating upon the state of his friend Lazarus, the distress his two sisters were in, and the greater damnation that would befall the Jews then present, who, notwithstanding the miracle, would not believe in him. This shows him to be truly and really man, subject to like passions, only without sin.

John 11:35 In-Context

33 When Jesus saw her crying and the Jews who had come with her crying also, he was deeply disturbed and troubled.

34 He asked, "Where have you laid him?" They replied, "Lord, come and see."

35 Jesus began to cry.

36 The Jews said, "See how much he loved him!"

37 But some of them said, "He healed the eyes of the man born blind. Couldn't he have kept Lazarus from dying?"
