A Sin of Defiant Indifference
Commentators stress that the sin condemned here is far more than mere celebration. It is a willful, "sensual recklessness" (Ellicott) and "contempt of God" (Henry) in the face of His call to repentance. It's a conscious choice to indulge in "revelry and riot" (Barnes) when God is calling for humility, showing a profound disregard for His authority and impending judgment.
