God's Escalating Wrath

Commentators note that this verse marks a significant intensification of God's judgment. While an earlier warning in verse 24 stated God would 'walk contrary' to Israel, this verse adds the phrase 'in fury.' This demonstrates that God's response to persistent, unrepentant sin is not static but escalates in severity.
