Bible Question:
In mrk 14:25 Jesus states He will not drink anymore of the fruit of the VINE What VINE do you think was He referencing to? |
Bible Answer: Greetings Sistasista, Welcome to the forum! The vine Jesus referred to in this passage was the grape vine, literally. He is telling His disciples that this would be His last meal before being put to death. If we look at Mark 14:22 it says, "And as they did eat" would mean that they were already eating and drinking. The same is written in Mat 26:26. Furthermore, Jesus did NOT drink of the vine while He was on the cross. Mark 15:23 says, "but He refused it" and Mat 27:34 says, "and when He had tasted therefore, He would not drink", thus completing the prophecy in Psa 69:21, "... and in my thirst they gave me vinegar to drink." In Joh 19:30, "When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar" does NOT mean that He drank it. So, in Mark 14:25, the vine does NOT refer to the Eucharist, but means just what it says, the grape vine. If you read more into this passage of Scripture, you are in danger of being misled. eklektos |
