Wilhelmus à Brakel on the anger of God toward His Son on that cross:
The curse. Christ felt in full force the curse, the execution of being accursed, Galatians 3:10-13, the wrath of God, the Lord's anger, righteously expressed upon a sinner (214)
Imagine feeling the sin in its horror, being utterly forsaken of God's favor, feeling God's wrath and anger as a Judge in righteousness in the highest degree, and then being attacked and assaulted in the most cunning and most horrific way by the power of hell at that time. What a situation it was! What a distressing state it was! Thus, Christ suffered according to the soul. (214)
