STRONGS G21:
ἀγαλλιάω, -ῶ, and -άομαι, (but the active is not used except in Luke 1:47 [ἠγαλλίασα], in Revelation 19:7 [ἀγαλλιῶμεν] L T Tr WH [and in 1 Peter 1:8 WH Tr marginal reading (ἀγαλλιᾶτε), cf. WH Appendix, p. 169]); 1 aorist ἠγαλλιασάμην, and (with a middle significance) ἠγαλλιάθην (John 5:35; Rec. ἠγαλλιάσθην); a word of Hellenistic coinage (from ἀγάλλομαι to rejoice, glory [yet cf. Buttmann, 51 (45)]), often in Sept. (for גִּיל, עָלַץ, רָנַן, שׂוּשׂ), to exult, rejoice exceedingly: Matthew 5:12; Luke 10:21; Acts 2:26; Acts 16:34; 1 Peter 1:8; 1 Peter 4:13; ἔν τίνι, 1 Peter 1:6, dative of the thing in which the joy originates [cf. Winers Grammar, § 33 a.; B. 185 (160)]; but John 5:35 means, 'to rejoice while his light shone' [i. e. in (the midst of) etc.]. ἐπί τίνι, Luke 1:47; followed by ἵνα, John 8:56 that he should see, rejoiced because it had been promised him that he should see. This divine promise was fulfilled to him at length in paradise; cf. Winers Grammar, 339 (318); B. 239 (206). On this word see Gelpke in the Studien und Kritiken for 1849, p. 645f.
