Exegesis
Ek tou naou {ἐκ τοῦ ναοῦ | ek tou na-oû} specifies the origin of the voice as the heavenly temple.
The direct object tas hepta phialas tou thymou tou theou {τὰς ἑπτὰ φιάλας τοῦ θυμοῦ τοῦ θεοῦ | tàs hep-tá phi-á-las tou thu-moû tou the-oû} binds the bowls to God’s wrath through a double genitive construction, reinforcing divine sanction.
In context — Revelation 16:1
Then I heard a great voice from the temple speaking to the seven angels: “Go, and pour out the seven bowls of the wrath of God onto the earth .”
