Actually the Bible says give strong drink to those about to die and wine to the poor, Strong Drink is an Opium infused wine, wine is fermented fruit juice.Skans » 23 Jun 2022, 3:22 pm » wrote: ↑ Doesn't matter. Alcohol is temptation. I never said it is evil in and of itself, just temptation into a pathway which sometimes leads to the dark ream.
Also, It's not like they had refrigeration in Galilee. How long would grape juice last there without refrigeration? It's going to turn into wine whether you like it or not. It was probably more like a very sweet, rotten grape juice rather than what we call "wine".
Interesting is the reason the Bible says to give wine to the poor is so that the poor can drink and forget their poverty.
At the beginning of Game of Thrones the Queen gave the Opium infused wine to the King when he went boar hunting, and a boar got him.
