God's Righteous Anger
Commentators agree that God's anger wasn't a fleeting emotion but a righteous response to Moses's stubborn refusal to obey. After patiently addressing Moses's excuses, God's anger was kindled by his continued resistance. Scholars like John Calvin note that this serves as a warning: while God is patient, we should not abuse His grace by persisting in disobedience.
