A Power Beyond Measure
Commentators stress that the power of God's anger is beyond human comprehension. Using the universal reality of death as an example, they explain that God's wrath is as vast and immeasurable as His majesty. Scholars note that while we can exaggerate many fears, our fear of God's wrath can never fully capture its awesome reality. This verse serves as a sober warning against underestimating God's justice.
