Exegesis
The climactic prepositional phrase eis tḕn lēnon tou thymou tou theou {εἰς τὴν ληνὸν τοῦ θυμοῦ τοῦ θεοῦ | eis tḕn lē-nón tou thymou tou theou} ‘into the winepress of the wrath of God’ features stacked genitives—tou thymou ‘of wrath’ qualifies lēnon ‘winepress,’ and tou theou ‘of God’ specifies whose wrath is in view.
In context — Revelation 14:19
And the angel swung his sickle into the earth and gathered the vine of the earth, and he threw it into the great winepress of the wrath of God .
