Exegesis
The direct object is the complex noun phrase hepta phialas chrysas gemousas {ἑπτὰ φιάλας χρυσᾶς γεμούσας | heptá phiálas chrysâs gemoúsas}, “seven golden bowls being full,” where the attributive adjective chrysas and the participle gemousas both modify phialas {φιάλας | phiálas}. The participle gemousas functions adjectivally, specifying the state of the bowls and taking its own genitive complement.
In context — Revelation 15:7
And one of the four living creatures gave to the seven angels seven golden bowls, full of the wrath of God , who lives forever and ever.
