Direction to the ministers of vengeance to execute God's wrath, as the enemy's wickedness is come to its full maturity. God does not cut off the wicked at once, but waits till their guilt is at its full (so as to the Amorites iniquity, Genesis 15:16), to show forth His own long-suffering, and the justice of their doom who have so long abused it (Matthew 13:27-30, Matthew 13:38, Matthew 13:40; Revelation 14:15-19). For the image of a harvest to be threshed, compare Jeremiah 51:33; and a wine-press, Isaiah 63:3 and Lamentations 1:15.
