Jesus wept because He felt compassion - "When Jesus saw her weeping, and the Jews who had come with her also weeping, he was deeply moved in his spirit and greatly troubled." John 11:33
Jesus already knew that He was going to raise Lazarus from the dead. That was without a doubt!
John 11:4 When he heard this, Jesus said, "This sickness will not end in death. No, it is for God's glory so that God's Son may be glorified through it."; John 11:11 Then he said, "Our friend Lazarus has fallen asleep, but now I will go and wake him up."
Yet Jesus wept. Because GOD never meant for Man to die. GOD hates death! Because of the sin of the first Adam, all men have sinned and fall short of the glory of GOD but because of the last Adam's (Jesus) finished work at the cross, now we receive abundance of grace and the gift of righteousness through the ONE, Jesus Christ (Romans 5:17)! Jesus conquered death, conquered sin and all diseases to give us health, wealth, wholeness and an abundant life till eternity.
Give our Lord Jesus all the praise :)
