Thank you for your responces!
I am convinced that the Lord Jesus was not gluttonous and winebibber. And the accusation against Him was not true, so He was drinking only grape juice. If He was drinking wine He was a gluttoous also then. Mattew 11:19
As for the Old Testament we are told in Proverbs not even to look at wine, the priests were forbidden to drink strong drink when they were going to minister and it is not for the kings to drink wine or strong drink. My question was is there a different word for an unalcoholic wine (or grape juice) used in the New Testament or the context will determine what kind of wine it is talking about.
