1 | Does "oenus" mean wine or juice? | Matt 9:17 | Hamartolos | 139199 | ||
In the New Testament, does the word wine really mean "juice"? Because I've checked most of the passages in the N.T. (including the marriage at Cana) and have found the word "oenus" every single time. I'm no scholar, so I would like to know if the word "oenus" either always means wine or means either wine or juice. Any help is welcome. Vobis gratias. | ||||||
2 | Does "oenus" mean wine or juice? | Matt 9:17 | Deafawake | 139200 | ||
There are a number of original-language terms that usually designate some kind of wine and its corresponding Aramaic term chamar But the Hebrew word ya´yin is found most frequently in the Scriptures. It first appears in Genesis 9:20-24, where the reference is to Noah’s planting a vineyard after the Flood and then becoming intoxicated on the wine therefrom. The Greek word oi´nos (basically corresponding to the Hebrew term yayin) first occurs in Jesus’ comments on the inadvisability of using old wineskins for new, partially fermented wine, as the pressure developed through fermentation would burst the old wineskins.—Mt 9:17; Mr 2:22; Lu 5:37, 38. Various strong alcoholic liquors, apparently derived from pomegranates, dates, figs, and the like, were usually designated by the Hebrew term she·khar. (Nu 28:7; De 14:26; Ps 69:12) The Hebrew word a·sis, at The Song of Solomon 8:2, refers to “the fresh juice” of pomegranates, but in other passages the context points to wine. (Isa 49:26; Joe 1:5) Beer may have been designated by the Hebrew word so´ve´.—Isa 1:22; Na 1:10. To get more questions answered copy and paste the following link www.watchtower.org |

Watchtower? Sorry, but I would like an answer from a protestant. I'm baptist, but I only excommunicate mormons, Jehovah's witnesses, catholics, masons, and cults. | ||||||
