Lapho umngane kaJesu uLazaru efa kungazelelwe, uJesu walibangisa emzini wakubo. Kuyaqondakala ukuthi kungani odadewabo bakaLazaru, uMariya noMarta, babelusizi. UJesu wayewuthanda kakhulu lo mkhaya. (Johane 11:5) Wayezokwenzenjani-ke? Ukulandisa kuthi: “Lapho uJesu embona [uMariya] ekhala namaJuda ayeze naye ekhala, wabubula emoyeni futhi wakhathazeka; wathi: ‘Nimbekephi?’ Bathi kuye: ‘Nkosi, woza uzobona.’ UJesu wakhala izinyembezi.” (Johane 11:33-35) UJesu wayekhalelani? Kuyiqiniso, umngane wakhe othandekayo uLazaru wayefile, kodwa uJesu wayesezokulungisa lokho ngokumvusa. (Johane 11:41-44) Ingabe kukhona okunye okwakuthinte uJesu ngokomzwelo?

Ake uwabheke futhi amazwi acashunwe ngenhla. Phawula ukuthi lapho uJesu ebona uMariya nababenaye bekhala, “wabubula” futhi “wakhathazeka.” Amazwi olimi lokuqala asetshenziswe lapha abonisa imizwelo ejulile.a UJesu wathinteka ngokujulile ngenxa yalokho akubona. Imizwelo enamandla eyamfikela yaba sobala njengoba ehlengezela izinyembezi. Kusobala ukuthi ubuhlungu babanye bayithinta inhliziyo kaJesu. Ingabe wake wakhala ngenxa yokubona othile omkhathalelayo ekhala?—Roma 12:15.
