Jesus wept
Jesus wept ((ギリシア語:ἐδάκρυσεν ὁ Ἰησοῦς)) is a phrase famous for being the shortest verse in the King James Version of the Bible, as well as many other versions.〔In the NIV, Job 3:2 is the shortest biblical verse. Whereas the KJV reads "And Job spake, and said," the NIV simply has "He said".〕 It is not the shortest in the original languages.〔The shortest verse in the Greek New Testament is Luke 20:30 ("", "And the second") with twelve letters, according to the Westcott and Hort text.〕 It is found in the Gospel of John, chapter 11, verse 35.
Verse breaks – or versification – were introduced into the Greek text by Robert Estienne in 1551 in order to make the texts easier to reference and compare.
==Context==
This verse occurs in John's narrative of the death of Lazarus, a follower of Jesus. Lazarus' sisters - Mary and Martha - sent word to Jesus of their brother's illness and impending death, but Jesus arrived four days after Lazarus died. Jesus, after talking to the grieving sisters and seeing Lazarus' friends weeping, was deeply troubled and moved. After asking where Lazarus had been laid, and being invited to come see,
He went to the tomb and told the people to remove the stone covering it, prayed aloud to his Father, and ordered Lazarus to come out, resurrected.〔
