Sadness and the Bible

In what scripture ?! We can’t take parts of the scripture out of context..

The Bible also talks about the peace that surpasses understanding. And I may not know what verse you’re referencing, but I know this if nothing else. We may sorrow for all of our time on this broken earth, but in Heaven there will be no more sorrow, or pain, or death, or sin and any of its other consequences. Only joy forevermore. And, I sincerely doubt Paul meant that he never stopped feeling sorrowful, and more than when he thought of whatever it was, the level of sorrow he had never changed/lessened, though I’m no expert. Try Bibleref.com with the verse that’s troubling you. I do it all the time, and reading an analysis from people much more well versed in scripture than I am, and who understand better the original context and such, is always really helpful to me when I’m confused or panicking over a verse I don’t understand.

Here's the context. I didn't get the exact wording down in the original post, but I think I was pretty close "I speak the truth in Christ—I am not lying, my conscience confirms it through the Holy Spirit— I have great sorrow and unceasing anguish in my heart. For I could wish that I myself were cursed and cut off from Christ for the sake of my people, those of my own race, " Romans 9:1‭-‬3 It seems to me that there are certain sad things that are difficult to process and things in which people find they are still sad about to some degree decades later, like for example the fact people will go to hell, including loved ones.

Ok I have done research on the scripture but is a long one ..

And yes is things that are totally sad and is natural especially a death of a loved one !! I do read the Bible and I don’t believe people suffer after death . Have a look at Ecclesiastes 9:5-7 For the living know that they will die, but the dead know nothing at all, nor do they have any more reward, because all memory of them is forgotten. 6 Also, their love and their hate and their jealousy have already perished, and they no longer have any share in what is done under the sun. 7 Go, eat your food with rejoicing, and drink your wine with a cheerful heart, for already the true God has found pleasure in your works.

So they don’t know anything like in a deep sleep !! And the dead I believe will come back to life . The resurrections in the Bible were just evidence that is possible like on the past so in the future . Even for people who made serious mistakes like the criminal who was on the cross next to Jesus ! Jesus promised him life in the kingdom. God is Love 🤗

So on the actual scripture in Romans 9:3 Paul is here using a form of hyperbole or exaggeration to express his willingness to on himself the curse from God that awaited his brothers unbelieving Jews , for rejecting the promised Messiah(Jesus ). Paul’s point is that he was willing to do everything within his power to help them to avail themselves of Gods means of salvation !
