25.127 · Attitudes and Emotions · Happy, Glad, Joyful
to rejoice in, to delight in to be happy as the result of the pleasure derived from some experience or state In a number of languages one may speak of ‘one’s inner being’ as ‘one’s liver’ or ‘one’s heart’ or ‘one’s abdomen’ (employing a reference to one of the organs of the body as a focal element of the personality). But in some languages a more figurative and idiomatic expression may be employed, for example, ‘one’s inner counterpart’ or ‘the little one who stands inside of a person.’ It is often this central or crucial aspect of the personality which must be referred to in contexts speaking of the type of pleasure or delight which one might have in the law of God.
