And so in many other places. So we read of God's fierceness, Rev. xix. 15. There we read of 'the wine-press of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God.' The words are exceeding terrible: if it had only been said, 'the wrath of God,'the words would have implied that which is infinitely dreadful: but 'tis not only said so, but 'the fierceness and wrath of God.
