Jesus wept when he learned that his friend Lazarus had passed away in death. However Jesus also knew he had it within his power to raise Lazarus up from the dead.

So why else would our exemplar have for shedding tears and showing such emotion? As I recently learned, Jesus wept also out of a profound empathy or fellow feeling for his family and friends who were distraught over Lazarus’ passing.

Remember they questioned whether Lazarus could be raised and intimated to Jesus that he had been dead for some time.

(John 11:33-35)
