After checking through the entire Torah, it becomes clear that the several occasions in which Moses "became angry" (such as in Exodus ch.16, Leviticus ch.10 and Numbers ch.31), all involved someone violating (or seeming to violate) a Torah-command. This means that he was passionate about God's Torah. And when God's command is fulfilled, we can read between the lines that Moses is happy (see Exodus 39:43).

Moses also becomes ardent when his people are suffering (Exodus 2:11-12, and 5:22-23) or need forgiveness (Exodus 32:32, Numbers 16:22). It is because of this love for his people that, when he is about to die, he ceases his words of admonishment and gives his people a long, impassioned blessing (Deuteronomy ch.33).
