Subject: Did Jesus ever drink wine? |
Bible Note: I check out the two links. They both hold very different views. The second is a perfect example of my earlier post on this thread. Apparently anyone who doesn't agree with their view of wine is "apostate." In either case, the first did not mention the mixing of wine with water and the second mentions the four parts to one mixture without any reference. It's not that I don't think this has a high probability to be true. But the quote is a specific 4-1 mixture rather than the more generic "they mixed water in with their wine" This leads me to believe that they MUST have a source. Something dating from near the first century such as Philo or Josephus or the Mishna or a Greek writer from the era speaking about the Jews. I've read many of so-called historical "facts" from the first century that turned out to be not true, but since they've been passed on so much and so many pastors reference them in sermons, they become assumed.
