Exegesis
The clause ve’atem mosifim {וְאַתֶּם מוֹסִיפִים | wə·’at·tem mō·sî·p̄îm} ‘and you are adding’ shifts to the present audience, modifying kharon {חָרוֹן | ḥā·rōn} ‘wrath’ with al-Yisra’el {עַל-יִשְׂרָאֵל | ‘al·yiś·rā·’ēl}.
In context — Nehemiah 13:18
Is it not thus that your fathers acted, and our God brought all this calamity upon us and upon this city? Yet you are adding wrath upon Israel by profaning the Sabbath .
