Luke 13: 31-35
Lamenting With Jesus Lamenting With Jesus Lamenting With Jesus Lamenting With Jesus

To lament, as Jesus does in our Gospel reading today, is a very biblical thing to do.  The Hebrew word for lament literally means ‘howl’ or ‘wail’.  To lament is to hold out before God the unspeakable grief of our aching hearts;  to name for ourselves and for others what is unacceptable in our lives and in God’s world.
