I'm starting a word study on the word joy in the King James Bible. The best way to learn what a word in the Bible means is to see how it is used elsewhere in the Bible. The word joy appears 165 times in 155 verses in the KJV. It is important that you look up these passages and read the chapter so you know the context the word is being used in. I plan on just posting a couple scriptures a day. God Bless!!
I Samuel 18:6
And it came to pass as they came, when David was returned from the slaughter of the Philistine, that the women came out of all cities of Israel, singing and dancing, to meet king Saul, with tabrets, with joy, and with instruments of musick.
I Kings 1:40
And all the people came up after him, and the people piped with pipes, and rejoiced with great joy, so that the earth rent with the sound of them.
