Why did Jesus WEEP for Jerusalem? #Israel #biblicalhistory

Explore the profound prophecy and the humanity of Jesus as he wept over Jerusalem's fate on the Mount of Olives.

=====================

TRANSCRIPT:

The Bible says when Jesus was coming down the Mount of Olives, he beheld Jerusalem and he wept over the city. And he began to prophesy, saying, because you missed your hour of visitation, the temple will be torn down so much so not one stone will be left on top of another. And that's actually what happened. Just 40 years after Jesus made that prophetic statement, the Romans, responding to a revolt of the Jewish people, tore the temple down, raised the city, and killed many Jewish people in the process.

When Jesus was coming down the Mount of Olives, towards his crucifixion, he was weeping over those that would have to endure that time. It's just a beautiful moment in Scripture that in the midst of a whole worship procession, and people shouting, Hosanna, here's Jesus weeping over a city that missed its Messiah, that was going to endure hardship. We see the humanity of Jesus wishing better for those that he loves.

=====================
📖 SCRIPTURE: [Luke 19:41-44] As he approached Jerusalem and saw the city, he wept over it 42 and said, “If you, even you, had only known on this day what would bring you peace—but now it is hidden from your eyes.43 The days will come upon you when your enemies will build an embankment against you and encircle you and hem you in on every side.44 They will dash you to the ground, you and the children within your walls. They will not leave one stone on another, because you did not recognize the time of God’s coming to you.”

Jesus was saddened as He was saying this and even though they hated Him Jesus loved them so much he gave them 40 years, not 40 minutes, 40 hours, 40 days, 40 weeks, 40 months but 40 years, He loved them so much and was so abundant in grace and mercy that He waited 40 years to destroy their temple 😭😭😭😭😭 this is a testament to the patient and compassionate God we serve who loves us so much that He renews our grace and gives us mercy every single morning that we may have another chance being full of grace and mercy to try again 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌 Jesus loves you/me/us so much He is willing that none shall perish, NONE 😭😭😭😭🙌🙌🙌🙌 what an awesome God we serve Amen 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌

Daniel’s 70 weeks prophecy (Daniel 9:24-27), to those who were privy to it when Jesus was Incarnate, predicted EXACTLY WHEN Messiah would present Himself. Either they weren’t aware of this prophecy (which is hard to believe, especially in the case of the Scribes and Pharisees) or they didn’t like the Messiah God sent. Jesus said “they did not recognize THE TIME of His visitation” (Luke 19:44).

Ah, this actually tells me to get myself and things needed to be in order. Not to miss the things that need to be done when my life is still with me.

JESUS Christ created the heavens and earth, and He knows the past, the present and the future, everything !
The most wise and Almighty. Human and Divine. Better than King Solomon is here, we refuse to believe Him at our own loss !

❤ O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, the city that kills the prophets and stones those who are sent to it! How often would I have gathered your children together as a hen gathers her brood under her wings, and you were not willing! Matthew 23:37

[happydays]

In AD70 the Temple was destroyed fulfilling bible prophesy. The Jews rejected their Messiah and salvation came unto the Gentiles, Romans 11 11kjv. Now all believers are saved by belief that the Lord Jesus Christ died for our sins was buried and rose again the 3rd day, 1 Corinthians 15 1-4kjv.

[culturalobserver]

Thanks. Your topic is based on Matthew 23:37. Such a poignant, sad passage of scripture, but God and His Son, Jesus still loves Israel! 💙

[patriciacole]

We will each choose Jesus or barrabus in our choosing Sabbath or sun day. Remember the fourth commandment KJV reminds us of Genesis 2:2&3. Jesus is our example. EVEN the forty days after His resurrection. Choose wisely.

[JESUS-IS-GOD]

I pray that the whole word n all Hebrews get to know this truth about Christ. It’s sad seeing them speak evil against the only Man who could ever die for wretched spoilt foolish ungrateful selfish human beings
