"This joy"


“He who believes the truth enters on the enjoyment of a happiness which is of the same nature and springs from the same sources as the happiness of God.  Jehovah rests and rejoices in the manifestation made of His all-perfect character in the person and work of Jesus Christ; and he who believes enters into this rest and participates in this joy.”
John Brown, An Exposition of the Epistle to the Hebrews (Edinburgh, 1862), I:210.
