Luke 13:31-35 - Jesus' Sorrow for Jerusalem
31"At that very hour some Pharisees came and said to him, "Leave this place and go somewhere else. Herod wants to kill you."
32He replied, "Go tell that fox, 'I will drive out demons and heal people today and tomorrow, and on the third day I will reach my goal.'
33In any case, I must keep going today and tomorrow and the next day—for surely no prophet can die outside Jerusalem!
34"O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, you who kill the prophets and stone those sent to you. How often I have longed to gather your children together, as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings, but you were not willing!
35Remember, your house was once left to you desolate. I tell you, you will not see me again until you say, 'Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord'."
DOMINUS FLEVIT - "The Lord Wept" - on The Mount of Olives, Jerusalem...
