This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

Luk 19:41. Ἰδὼν, having beheld) A new step in His approach to the city. The sight of it moved Him. It was on that very spot afterwards that the Roman siege of the city began. See on Mat 24:15.-[ἔκλαυσεν, He wept) Behold before thee the compassionate King, amidst the very shouts of joy raised by His disciples! Jesus weeps over Jerusalem, and yet compels no man by force.-(V. g.) But who shall endure the sword which proceedeth out of His mouth, when He shall appear, borne on the white horse? Rev 19:11, etc.-Harm., p. 446.]-ἐπʼ αὐτῇ, [over or] concerning it) not [over or] concerning Himself. Comp. ch. Luk 23:28.
