A Pivot in God's Anger

Commentators unanimously explain that this verse marks a crucial turning point. God's 'indignation' or disciplinary anger toward His own people is temporary and will soon end. His anger will then pivot and be fully directed toward the complete destruction of their enemy, the Assyrians. This was a profound message of hope for Judah during a terrifying invasion.
