Romans15:32
That I may come unto you. That I may not be impeded in my intended journey by opposition in Judea.
With joy. Joy to myself in being permitted to come and producing joy to you by my presence.
By the will of God. If God will; If God permit. After all his desires, and all their prayers, it still depended on the will of God; and to that the apostle was desirous to submit. This should be the end of our most ardent desires, and this the object of all our prayers, that the will of God should be done. Comp. Jas 4:14,15. Paul did go by the will of God; but he went in bonds.
And be refreshed. Greek, May find rest or solace with you.
