God's Warning is Merciful

Commentators emphasize that God sending prophets was an act of His "clemency, goodness, and condescension." Before executing wrath for their idolatry, God provided a gracious opportunity for the people to repent and return to Him. This highlights that God's desire is for restoration, and His warnings are a sign of His mercy, not just His anger.
