14. eat … of the vine] i.e. fresh or dried grapes, Num_6:3, 1Sa_25:18, Jer_31:29 f. etc. Not merely intoxicants, but anything to do with the vine is forbidden, for the reason suggested on Jdg_13:4; cf. the prohibition laid upon the Roman Flamen Dialis, who was not allowed even to walk under a trellised vine (Plutarch, Quaest. Rom., 112). Similarly the Rechabites not only eschewed wine but planted no vineyards; their abstinence, however, was a protest in favour of nomadic as against settled life, Jer_35:6-9. See further NSI., p. 305.
