Here's his conclusion.
This is the joy.] The word which we translate joy, signifies the highest joy, a kind of leaping for joy.1 It is an allusion to dogs or spaniels, who (you know) when their Masters come home, leap about them for joy, and in their language bid them welcome. Such a joy is here meant, a joy lifting up the heart, a leaping, an exulting joy. The word is often applied to the joy of the Saints, they rejoice, and (as it were) leap about Jesus Christ, they triumph in the favour of God. The leaping, the exulting joy, the best joy, all the joy which an hypocrite hath, is but this, which hath been described; Is it not a desirable joy? a goodly joy sure? the words are ironical, This is the joy of his way.
