Wine » Cheap wine (like vinegar) given to jesus at the crucifixion
The soldiers also made fun of Jesus by coming up and offering him sour wine,
A jar of sour wine was standing there, so they put a sponge full of the wine on a branch of hyssop and held it to his mouth.
They tried to give him wine mixed with myrrh, but he wouldn't accept it.
So one of the men ran off at once, took a sponge, and soaked it in some sour wine. Then he put it on a stick and offered Jesus a drink.
