The verse highlights the moral danger of unchecked anger in warfare: when wrath rises, responses tend to escalate, drawing even greater powers into conflict. It implicitly values self-control and discernment (dharma) over mere might.
In the battle scene, Arjuna is seen fighting in a provoked, wrathful state. Indra, the king of the gods, responds by releasing his own powerful divine missile, so potent that it seems to cover the whole sky.
