“Then said the Jews, Behold how he loved him!”
King James Version (KJV)
11:35 Jesus wept - Out of sympathy with those who were in tears all around him, as well as from a deep sense of the misery sin had brought upon human nature.
11:37 Could not this person have even caused, that this man should not have died? - Yet they never dreamed that he could raise him again! What a strange mixture of faith and unbelief.
11:38 It was a cave - So Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and their wives, except Rachel, were buried in the cave of Machpelah, #Gen 49:29 |- 31. These caves were commonly in rocks, which abounded in that country, either hollowed by nature or hewn by art. And the entrance was shut up with a great stone, which sometimes had a monumental inscription.
Joh 11:36 Behold how he loved him! Some of the Jews were touched by the evidence of tender affection.
Then said the Iewes, Behold, how he loued him.
