Origen, on Heb 12:5

“And you have forgotten the consolation, which speaketh to you, as unto children, saying: My son, neglect not the discipline of the Lord; neither be thou wearied whilst thou art rebuked by him.”

“Therefore, if this "jealous God" asks for you and wishes your soul to cleave to him, if he keeps you from sin, if he corrects and chastises you, if he is indignant, if he is angry and uses a kind of jealousy against you, know that this is your hope of salvation.… See the compassion and loyalty of the good God. When he wishes to have mercy, he says he is indignant and angry.”
