Hi, the duck... Welcome to the forum! Why questions are always the most difficult of questions. Where, when, what, who, etc. are a lot easier! The Scripture does not tell us. The Jamieson, Fausset, and Brown commentary say that the abstinence from wine was included because "the use of wine tended to inflame the passions, intoxicate the brain, and create a taste for luxurious indulgence." Sounds right, given the nature and purpose of the vow. --Scott |
