The Key Word — חֵמָה, che.Mahgenerated
The Hebrew word חֵמָה (*chemah*) signifies intense anger or rage, often depicted as a burning fire. It is used to describe both divine wrath and human anger, warning against the dangers of unchecked emotions. In this context, it emphasizes that God is not angry, highlighting His readiness for action without the influence of rage.
The passive nature of the word suggests that while God has the capacity for anger, He chooses not to express it in this situation. This indicates a deliberate decision to act with restraint and purpose, rather than out of uncontrolled emotion.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
This study reads the verse in the Berean Standard Bible, so the BSB is the wording every comparison below is made against. The BSB has not angry, which aligns with the KJV and ASV, both of which also reflect God's lack of anger.
Where others part company with the BSB is in the rendering of יָּֽחַד — together (ASV, KJV) versus altogether (ILT). This difference highlights a subtle distinction in the interpretation of unity in action.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The main clause is governed by the subject חֵמָה, rage, followed by a predicate אֵ֣ין, not. This structure emphasizes God's emotional state before introducing the conditional phrases that outline His response to the thorns and briers.
The sentence is structured to first declare God's emotional stance and then to detail the actions He would take if confronted, illustrating a clear cause-and-effect relationship in His intentions.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
The Septuagint translates חֵמָה as τεῖξος, which can imply a protective barrier. This choice reflects a broader interpretation of God's anger as a protective measure rather than a destructive force.
The Greek rendering highlights the intent behind God's actions, suggesting that His lack of anger is a means to foster peace rather than conflict.

With war will I go forth against them; I will burn them up together. The reversal of the sentence is continued. Wrath against this vineyard has passed away from Jehovah. Should briars and thorns (symbols of the enemies of His people, as in Isaiah 9:18; Isaiah 10:17; 2 Samuel 23:6-7; Ezekiel 2:6) spring up, he will do battle against them, and consume them utterly.

AdamClarkeAdam Clarke's Commentary on the BibleVerse 4. Fury is not in me - "I have no wall"] For חמה chemah, anger, the Septuagint and Syriac read חומה chomah, wall. An ancient MS. has חימה cheimah. For בה bah, in her, two MSS. read בם bam, in them, plural. The vineyard wishes for a wall and a fence of thorns - human strength and protection, (as the Jews were too apt to apply to their powerful neighbours for assistance, and to trust to the shadow of Egypt:) JEHOVAH replies, that this would not avail her, nor defend her against his wrath. He counsels her, therefore, to betake herself to his protection. On which she entreats him to make peace with her. From the above note it appears that the bishop reads, חומה chomah, wall, for חמה…
