The words of today's verse are reminiscent of the description of the return of the exiled Jews to the Land of Israel found in Psalms (126:2): “then was our mouth filled with laughter.” It is often said that what causes someone to laugh is an unexpected ending. While he is in the midst of his suffering, it is almost impossible for Job to imagine relief from his misery. Similarly, the Jewish people in exile could not always envision an actual redemption. When it comes, therefore, it not only causes feelings of happiness and joy but laughter as well.
