Every Time Jesus Wept in the Bible Explained

The shortest verse in the Bible is two words: Jesus wept. But what nobody told you is that the Son of God wept exactly three times in the Gospels — three different reasons, three different Greek verbs, and one of them is hidden where most people never look. This video walks you through all three weepings: outside the tomb of Lazarus in Bethany, over the city of Jerusalem on Palm Sunday, and on his face in the dirt of Gethsemane the night before he died. You will learn: The three Greek verbs: edakrysen (silent tears welling up — John 11:35), eklausen (loud lamenting wail — Luke 19:41), krauge (a violent shouting cry — Hebrews 5:7) The Latin Vulgate's lacrimavit — the root of the English word "lacrimal" Why Augustine, John Chrysostom, and Ambrose all wrote about the tears differently What Pope Benedict XVI called "the bridge between the Gospel and the Passion" Catechism §478 on the Sacred Heart of Jesus The Anima Christi prayer — the 700-year-old Catholic prayer said after Communion Sister Marie of Saint Peter (Carmelite, Tours, 1843) and the devotion to the Holy Face The visions of Anne Catherine Emmerich, the Augustinian stigmatic of Westphalia (1824) The deuterocanonical book of Sirach on weeping for the dead Featuring: Augustine of Hippo · John Chrysostom · Ambrose of Milan · Pope Benedict XVI · Pope Leo XIII · Catechism of the Catholic Church §478 · Sirach (Deuterocanonical) · Anima Christi · Holy Face devotion 🔔 Subscribe for Catholic Bible explainers grounded in the Greek, the Latin, the Fathers, and the Catechism. #CatholicBible #JesusWept #GospelOfJohn #SacredHeart #HolyFace #AnimaChristi #Gethsemane #Catholic #BibleExplained #ChurchFathers
