God's Long Restrained Wrath
Exodus 6:1
Then the LORD said to Moses, Now shall you see what I will do to Pharaoh: for with a strong hand shall he let them go…


When the ice on the great American rivers is broken up, it is sometimes obstructed in its course towards the sea by a log of wood, or something else, that arrests it. But then, as block after block of ice accumulates, the waters above increase in volume and weight, till their force, with mighty crash, sweeps away all the mass. And so the wrath of God, though long restrained by His love and mercy, sweeps away the incorrigible sinner to perdition.

(H. R. Burton.)
