Context of Revelation 14:10

8Then another angel followed him through the sky, shouting, “Babylon is fallen—that great city is fallen—because she made all the nations of the world drink the wine of her passionate immorality.” 9Then a third angel followed them, shouting, “Anyone who worships the beast and his statue or who accepts his mark on the forehead or on the hand must drink the wine of God’s anger. It has been poured full strength into God’s cup of wrath. And they will be tormented with fire and burning sulfur in the presence of the holy angels and the Lamb. 11The smoke of their torment will rise forever and ever, and they will have no relief day or night, for they have worshiped the beast and his statue and have accepted the mark of his name.” 12This means that God’s holy people must endure persecution patiently, obeying his commands and maintaining their faith in Jesus.

• Barnes’ Notes on the Bible · v. 10The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God - See notes on Revelation 14:8.

The same--Greek, "he also," as the just and inevitable retribution. wine of ... wrath of God--(Psa 75:8). without mixture--whereas wine was so commonly mixed with water that to mix wine is used in Greek for to pour out wine; this wine of God's wrath is undiluted; there is no drop of water to cool its heat.
