Luke 19:41
King James Version
12 Jun 2026
“And when he was come near, he beheld the city, and wept over it,”
ἐγγίζω
To draw near, to approach, to come close. Eggizo. The kingdom of heaven has come near. God draws near to those who draw near to Him. The distance closes from both sides.
κλαίω
He wept

κλαίω
To weep, to wail. Klaio. Jesus wept. The shortest verse in the Bible is also one of the most profound. God weeps with those who weep. He is not unmoved by human grief.

πόλις
City, town. Polis. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden. The church is meant to be visible. Its light is for the community around it. Hide nothing. Let it shine.
