NASB | Luke 10:21 ¶ At that very time He rejoiced greatly in the Holy Spirit, and said, "I praise You, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that You have hidden these things from the wise and intelligent and have revealed them to infants. Yes, Father, for this way was well-pleasing in Your sight. |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | Luke 10:21 ¶ In that very hour He was overjoyed and rejoiced greatly in the Holy Spirit, and He said, "I praise You, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that You have hidden these things [relating to salvation] from the wise and intelligent, and have revealed them to infants [the childlike and untaught]. Yes, Father, for this way was [Your gracious will and choice, and was] well-pleasing in Your sight. |
Subject: Jesus wept !... did Jesus ever laugh? |
Bible Note: Thanks for the answer... Yes I found one of them on Luke 7:9 "When Jesus heard this, he was amazed at him, and turning to the crowd following him, he said, “I tell you, I have not found such great faith even in Israel" However, my point is that the Bible literally expressed Jesus's sad expression as in "Jesus wept". The Bible does not literally describe his joyful expression. Sometimes, when I am amazed with something, I may not laugh or smile, just happily shocked. Perhaps, it is the way how you read the Bible. In other words, the Bible literally and emotionally shows us the pain and suffering of Christ, but for joy and happiness of Christ, I guess in that case we have to use our imagination........... |
