Rejoice, O Jerusalem, and keep high festival, all ye that love Jesus; for He is risen.  Rejoice, all ye that mourned before Is. lxvi. 10., when ye heard of the daring and wicked deeds of the Jews:  for He who was spitefully entreated of them in this place is risen again.  And as the discourse concerning the Cross was a sorrowful one, so let the good tidings of the Resurrection bring joy to the hearers.  Let mourning be turned into gladness, and lamentation to joy:  and let our mouth be filled with joy and gladness, because of Him, who after His resurrection, said Rejoice Matt. xxviii. 9, “All hail.”  The usual greeting, Χαίρετε, “Rejoice.”.  For I know the sorrow of Christ’s friends in these past days; because, as our discourse stopped short at the Death and the Burial, and did not tell the good tidings of the Resurrection, your mind was in suspense, to hear what you were longing for.
