Luke 19:41-42

As he approached Jerusalem and saw the city, he wept over it and said, "If you, even you, had only known on this day what would bring you peace-- but now it is hidden from your eyes”

From Background Notes [BN] for November 3^rd & 4^th written by Pastor Bob Brown:

Further, Bonhoeffer explains:

Such men mourn for the world, for its guilt, its fate, and its fortune. While the world keeps holiday they stand aside, and while the world sings … they mourn. They see that for all the jollity on board the ship is beginning to sink. The world dreams of progress, of power and of the future, but the disciples meditate on the end, the last judgment, and the coming of the kingdom. To such heights the world cannot rise. And so the disciples are strangers in the world, unwelcome guests and disturbers of the peace.  [BN, 6]
