Jesus knew what was coming. Yet, in ways mysterious, his foreknowledge did not liberate him from its harsh realities. He told the disciples up front that their friend Lazarus' story would not end with his death. Nope. It would end with the Son being glorified bringing glory to the Father. Sickness, death, "Where were you?" direct hits, grief, mourning and weeping left Jesus exploding with guttural groans and sobs. He was broken in the very graveyard he knew his friend would leave very shortly. So many questions. Later, Lazarus himself feasted with Jesus at a dinner that was given in Jesus' honor. Perhaps it's simply not possible to have the feast without the graveyard.
