Exegesis
The genitive chain ek tou oinou tou thymou tēs porneias autēs {ἐκ τοῦ οἴνου τοῦ θυμοῦ τῆς πορνείας αὐτῆς | ek tou oí-nou tou thy-moû tēs por-neí-as au-tēs} layers metaphors: oinou ‘wine’ as the intoxicating medium, modified by thymou ‘wrath’ indicating divine judgment, and tēs porneias autēs ‘of her fornication’ specifying the source of that wrath.
In context — Revelation 18:3
Because from the wine of the wrath of her fornication, all the nations have fallen, and the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth have become rich from the power of her luxury .
