Bible Note: Scatter, Greetings and welcome to the forum. Go back and read Mark 15:23 again the reason is right there in the context of the verse itself. Back in the day it wasn't uncommon for the Romans to offer the condemned Wine mixed with Myrrh (Gaul In some transalations) which was a drug used to lessen the pain. This verse states nothing about this wine being from the devil. Think about why he refused to take it. Remember Myrr was mixed with the wine and the affect it would have had. In Him, lionheart |
