The angels refer to Hashem as the “insulted King,” for He has the power to withdraw His life force from the sinner, but He continues to provide His goodness.
So too, each person should learn to tolerate his fellow man’s transgressions until he repents.
R’ Moshe Cordovero zt”l (Tomer Devorah)
Tammuz 23, 5330 (1570)
