1 Timothy 5:23 A fine way to stomach a lack of intestinal fortitude
by RS  admin@creationpie.com : 1024 x 640


1. 1 Timothy 5:23
Verse route1 Timothy 5:23 Drink no longer water, but use a little wine for thy stomach's sake and thine often infirmities. [kjv]
Verse routeμηκετι υδροποτει αλλα οινω ολιγω χρω δια τον στομαχον και τας πυκνας σου ασθενειας [gnt]

In the GNT (Greek New Testament), Paul advises his long-time helper Timothy to try some wine to help with some intestinal issue.

For this reason, Saint Timothy is sometimes invoked against stomach and intestinal disorders.

From this verse, it is inferred that Timothy was somewhat frail and not always in the best of health.

2. 1 Timothy 5:23
 All 
KJV: Drink no longer water, but use a little wine for thy stomach's sake and thine often infirmities.
Greek: μηκετι υδροποτει αλλ αλλα οινω ολιγω χρω δια τον στομαχονσου και τας πυκνας σου ασθενειας

Luther: Trinke nicht mehr Wasser, sondern brauche ein wenig Wein um deines Magens willen, und daß du oft krank bist.
Slavonic: Ктому не пий воды, но мало вина приемли, стомаха ради твоего и частых твоих недугов.
Russian: Впредь пей не одну воду, но употребляй немного вина, ради желудка твоего и частых твоих недугов.
Spanish: Ya no bebas agua, sino usa de un poco de vino por causa de tu estómago y de tus frecuentes enfermedades.

3. A grape way to whine about wine

Verse routeκαι εδιδουν αυτω εσμυρνισμενον οινον ος δε ουκ ελαβεν [gnt]

Grape cliusterA common use of grapes, that grow on a vine, is to make wine.

Wine can be made from many types of fruit. When I was growing up, a wayfaring person near our farm used to make dandelion wine.

At the crucifixion, Jesus is provided wine to drink, but he did not receive it.

7. Etymology
The English word "wine", and words for wine in many other languages, come from the PIE (Proto Indo-European) root "WOYHNOM""wine, vine". Many words for "wine" in many languages are related to the corresponding word for "vine".

8. Wine
The older ancient Greek word "Ϝοῖνος""wine" (using the digamma with the "v" sound). The ancient Greek word for "wine" originally had a beginning letter of the digamma «Ϝ» that had the sound of a English "w" or "v" so that «οίνος» was «Ϝοινος» and pronounced more like the English "wine" or the German "Wein" ("v" sound at the beginning).

Verse routeGenesis 9:21 And he drank of the wine, and was drunken; and he was uncovered within his tent. [kjv]
Verse routeהיין … [he]
Verse routeκαι επιεν εκ του οινου και εμεθυσθη και εγυμνωθη εν τω οικω αυτου [lxx]

*H3196 יַיִן (yah'-yin) : from an unused root meaning to effervesce; wine (as fermented); by implication, intoxication:--banqueting, wine, wine(-bibber).
היין - wine The Hebrew word "היין" (yayin) ≈ "wine". The Hebrew word for wine is related to the word for wine many languages.

After the flood, Noah grows a vineyard, makes wine and gets drunk.

It appears that Noah was "perfect" in his generation, as far being complete as having a clean gene pool, but was not what we today call "perfect" as in without imperfection.

16. Matthew 26:29 Fruit of the vine
Verse routeMatthew 26:29 But I say unto you, I will not drink henceforth of this fruit of the vine, until that day when I drink it new with you in my Father's kingdom. [kjv]
Verse routeλεγω δε υμιν ου μη πιω απ αρτι εκ τουτου του γενηματος της αμπελου εως της ημερας εκεινης οταν αυτο πινω μεθ υμων καινον εν τη βασιλεια του πατρος μου [gnt]

At the last supper, Jesus talks of drinking the fruit of the vine. At that time, spring during Passover, any wine, leftover from the Fall before, would have been somewhat fermented.

Perhaps this statement at the Last Supper is why Jesus refused the offer of wine (and myrrh to lessen the pain) at the crucifixion.

The word that the KJV (King James Version) translates as "fruit" is not the usual word for fruit but "offspring".
*G1081 *9 γέννημα (ghen'-nay-mah) : from G1080; offspring; by analogy, produce (literally or figuratively):--fruit, generation.

20. Craters
Verse routeExodus 24:6 And Moses took half of the blood, and put it in basons; and half of the blood he sprinkled on the altar. [kjv]
Verse routeλαβων δε μωυσης το ημισυ του αιματος ενεχεεν εις κρατηρας το δε ημισυ του αιματος προσεχεεν προς το θυσιαστηριον [lxx]
Verse routecrateras … [v]

One problem with wine is that of overdoing it to excess. Natural wine does not become fermented as strong wine, but the Greeks (and others) had ways of doing this.

In ancient Greek, a «κρηταρα» was a basin or bowl, often used to mix wine and water so that, by evaporation or by adding water, one could make it either stronger or weaker. The modern Greek word "κρατήρας" (kra-TEE-ras) ≈ "crater".

24. Research studies
In research studies involving statistics, one tries to infer information about a population by looking at only part of the population.

Have you heard the following?

25. Statistical studies
It is well known that in statistical studies, the inclusion or exclusion of factors can influence the result. Factors are often manipulated to get the result that is desired.

A goal of getting newspaper headlines, publicity, funding for projects, etc., can greatly influence what research is done and/or published. For this reason, one should always take research studies with a large grain of salt (i.e., in a very skeptical manner).

26. Red wine
Grape cliusterThe wine industry, and wine lovers, like the advice about drinking red wine in moderation.
In the wine industry, if it is too dry, it can be hard raisin grapes.
However, people who do everything in moderation are more likely to drink red wine in moderation.
