Love never fails
While everyone is getting tipsy is this thread....lol.... and going Greek too!!
also: OINOS is wine
Grape juice did not exist in the form we know it today like others said all wine juice would ferment... ask your chemistry teacher at school... it would either turn into wine ...or into vinegar if it was not added yeast.

"any fruit, including wine grapes, will spontaneously ferment without added yeast"....
All mediterenean people used wine. There is no question about it, not grape juice.
Now not all Jewish people were drunks and furthermore they used it in moderation. Wine has healing properties too. Like olive oil it was used to heal wounds (like we see at the parable of the good Samaritan). It sterilizes and kills germs.
We can also find archeological evidence that prove Christ (like all semitic people) used wine.
When I find any sources I will post it. But I am afraid that these sources are hard to find given the propaganda that Christ used "grape juice" from Welch's finest vineyards...
God bless,
