J. Thayer) – properly, passion-driven behavior, i.e. actions emerging out of strong impulses (intense emotion). - When [[G2372]] /thymós ("expressed passion") is used of people it indicates rage (personal venting of anger, worth). This flaw is completely absent of the Lord expressing (inspiring) intense anger. Accordingly, [[G2372]] (thymós) is used of God's perfect, holy wrath in Revelation ([[Revelation_14|Revelation 14:10,19]], [[Revelation_15|15:1, ]]etc.). This anger is directed against sin with intense opposition and without sin. - Only the Lord exercises righteous wrath, so we must depend solely on Him as we experience (express) anger. ## Blue Letter Bible - Outline - ## Blue Letter Bible - Strong's Definition - ## Blue Letter Bible - Vines - ## Transliteration Details - --- ## Date - Initial - 2023.01.26 - Revised - 2023.10.05
