And when he comes home, he calls together his friends and neighbors, saying unto them, Rejoice with me; for I have found my sheep which was lost.
All Commentaries on Luke 15:6 Go To Luke 15
Cornelius a Lapide
AD 1637
Rejoice with me; for I have found my sheep which was lost. ΣυγχάζητΠμοι, Let My joy be one with yours—partake of My joy. His joy is so great that he cannot confine it to Himself, His friends must rejoice also. He further indicates that the event is such a happy one, that it ought to afford matter for rejoicing to all. He says not, "Rejoice with the sheep that is found," but, "with Me." Because truly our life is His joy. S. Gregory.
