Summary
The apocryphal writings of Enoch and Jubilees and other texts from Qumran and the Mishna offer an eschatological vision of wine in expectation of Messiah or the coming of God’s kingdom. They also reveal how wine was used in the everyday life of Jews at meals, festivals, and sacred gatherings.
