Luke 23:28

French NFC 2019 (Nouvelle Français Courant)

Jésus se tourna vers elles et dit: « Femmes de Jérusalem, ne pleurez pas à mon sujet! Pleurez plutôt pour vous et pour vos enfants!

Que signifie ce verset ?

Jesus is talking to the women of Jerusalem who are mourning his death. He tells them not to cry for him but to think about their own future and that of their children.

Expliqué aux enfants

Imagine if your friend was going on a long trip, and you were feeling very sad about it. Your friend might tell you, 'Don’t worry about me; make sure you’re okay at home.' That's what Jesus is saying to the women in this story.

Contexte historique

The verse comes from Luke’s Gospel, which was written around 60-85 AD by a doctor and companion of Paul. It describes Jesus’ journey to his crucifixion, where he encounters mourners who are upset about what's happening to him.

Application pour aujourd'hui

Today, this can apply when you see people mourning over injustices or tragedies. Instead of dwelling solely on the pain, it might be wise to think about future actions and how we can prevent similar issues from affecting others, especially children.
