Clearly the good thief was truly happy while suffering, and hearing the words uttered by God, 'today you will be with me in Paradise.' Why else should the bones that God broke by the law should rejoice? So it follows being full is sadness, fasting happiness, being rich in money sadness, poor in spir...
