Why is it significant that Jesus was troubled?

Answered in 1 source

Jesus's troubles signify His identification with human suffering and the impact of sin.

Jesus's troubled spirit as He approached Lazarus's tomb reveals His deep connection to humanity's pain. He experienced genuine sorrow as He sympathized with Mary and Martha. This moment brings to light the nature of our Savior who does not stand aloof from our suffering but participates in it fully, demonstrating that He is a compassionate Savior who understands our trials and tribulations. As stated in Hebrews 4:15, He was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin.
