An Introduction to
Wrath
wrath

(rath)

NOUN: An intense anger; a vengeful punishment.

Many sins sow the seeds for war, but the unmitigated rage responsible for its execution comes from wrath. The destruction, the loss, the painall are left in the wake of this particular sin. Whether it comes down from on high like the gods rage in Homers Odyssey or boils up from inside like the fuel of Ahabs vengeful voyage, the vices choking grip has been felt throughout history and literature. Sometimes justified, oftentimes not, the results are always the same. While wrath is best defined in the gritted teeth and white-knuckled fist of the enraged, this short dictionary captures the spirit of the most combative sin.
