Isaiah 63:4

"“I have trodden the wine press alone. Of the peoples, no one was with me. Yes, I trod them in my anger and trampled them in my wrath. Their lifeblood is sprinkled on my garments, and I have stained all my clothing."

Key Reflection

This passage depicts God as a powerful judge who acts alone, treading the wine press of wrath to crush his enemies in anger. The vivid imagery of blood staining his clothes symbolizes both divine judgment and the extent of His vengeance against those who oppose Him.

From the Scholars: Barnes' Notes

For the day of vengeance -(See the notes atIsaiah 34:8). And the year of my redeemed is come -The year when my people are to be redeemed. It is a year when their foes are all to be destroyed, and when their entire liberty is to be effected.
