Exegesis

The genitive chain ek tou oinou tou thymou tou theou {ἐκ τοῦ οἴνου τοῦ θυμοῦ τοῦ θεοῦ | ek toû oî-nou toû thymoû toû theoû} ‘from the wine of the wrath of God’ uses successive genitives to specify the substance (oinos {οἶνος | oî-nos} ‘wine’) and its divine source (thymos {θυμός | thy-mós} ‘wrath’, theou {θεοῦ | the-oû} ‘of God’).

The participial phrase tou kekerasmenou akratou {τοῦ κεκερασμένου ἀκράτου | toû ke-ke-ras-mé-nou a-krá-tou} ‘which has been mixed undiluted’ qualifies the wine, with the perfect passive participle kekerasmenou indicating a completed mixing and akratos {ἀκράτος | a-krá-tos} ‘undiluted’ intensifying the image of unmitigated judgment.

Finally, the repeated preposition enōpion governs angelōn hagiōn kai enōpion tou arniou {ἐνώπιον ἀγγέλων ἁγίων καὶ ἐνώπιον τοῦ ἀρνίου | enṓ-pi-on an-gé-lōn ha-gí-ōn kaì enṓ-pi-on toû ar-ní-ou}, highlighting that this judgment occurs publicly before the holy angels and the Lamb as eschatological judge.
