Exegesis
The prepositional phrase epʼ autēn {ἐπʼ αὐτήν | ep autḗn} ‘over it’ specifies the direction of the lament, marking the city as the object of His sorrow. The progression from approach (ēngisen) to perception (idōn) to emotional response (eklausen) shapes the narrative flow and highlights Jesus’s compassionate lament over the fate of the city.
In context — Luke 19:41
And as He drew near and saw the city, He wept over it.
