GLUTTON AND A DRUNKARD / LUKE 7:34

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Luke 7:34

The Son of man is come eating and drinking; and ye say, Behold a gluttonous man, and a winebibber, a friend of publicans and sinners!

GLUTTON AND A DRUNKARD / LUKE 7:34

The Greek word for wine (oinos) in the New Testament was a general word that may be used for all kinds of wine, both unfermented and fermented. (Fermentation is the bio-chemical process by which yeast acts on sugars, breaking them down into alcohol, causing a beverage to become potentially intoxicating.) Jesus’ statement suggests that He drank some types of wine, while John did not. However, it cannot be determined from this passage what types of wine He drank since the Pharisees’ allegations concerning Jesus’ character are clearly false. They accuse Jesus of being a glutton and a drunkard, but these statements were designed to destroy His influence as a teacher of truth (Matthew 12:24; John 7:20; 8:48). The Bible clearly condemns drunkenness (Proverbs 20:1; 23:31; Ephesians 5:18; Romans 13:13; 1 Corinthians 5:11; 6:10; 1 Peter 4:3; Proverbs 23:31).
