Bible: Luke 19:41-44; 21:20-24; 23:28
Jesus Weeps for Jerusalem under Judgment
19:41 Now 1 when Jesus 2 approached 3 and saw the city, he wept over it, 19:42 saying, “If you had only known on this day, 4 even you, the things that make for peace! 5 But now they are hidden 6 from your eyes. 19:43 For the days will come upon you when your enemies will build 7 an embankment 8 against you and surround you and close in on you from every side. 19:44 They will demolish you 9 – you and your children within your walls 10 – and they will not leave within you one stone 11 on top of another, 12 because you did not recognize the time of your visitation from God.” 13
21:20 God was with the boy as he grew. He lived in the wilderness and became an archer. 21:21 He lived in the wilderness of Paran. 1 His mother found a wife for him from the land of Egypt. 2
21:22 At that time Abimelech and Phicol, the commander of his army, said to Abraham, “God is with you 3 in all that you do. 21:23 Now swear to me right here in God’s name 4 that you will not deceive me, my children, or my descendants. 5 Show me, and the land 6 where you are staying, 7 the same loyalty 8 that I have shown you.” 9
21:24 Abraham said, “I swear to do this.” 10
