10440. Turn back from the wrath of Thine anger. That this signifies that thus the turning away of that nation will not be hurtful, is evident from the signification of “the wrath of anger,” when said of Jehovah, as being a turning away on the part of man (of which above, n. 10431). Thus “to turn back from the wrath of anger” denotes that the turning away will not be hurtful. How the case herein is, is evident from what has been said and shown in what precedes.
