Matthew Poole and continuators on Isaiah 65:19

19 And I will rejoice in Hierusalem, and joy in my people , and the voice of weeping shall be no more heard in her, nor the voice of crying .

The nature of joy lying in the satisfaction, and well pleasedness of the Soul in the obtaining of the thing it hath willed; agreeth unto God, and joy and rejoycing are applied to him, ch. 62. 5. and in this text, so also, Ier. 32. 41. Zeph. 3. 17.

Such kind of promises are to be found, ch. 35. 10. & 51. 11. Ier. 31. 12. Rev. 21. 4. which must be understood either comparatively. They shall indure no such misery as formerly, or (if interpreted to a state in this life) as signifying only some long, or eminent state of happiness, if as to another life they may be taken strictly, as signifying perpetuity, and persection of joy and happiness.
