On Drunkenness
[2] In many places of his legislation he mentions wine and the plant whose fruit it is—the vine. Some persons he permits, others he forbids, to drink of it, and sometimes he gives opposite orders, at one time enjoining and at another prohibiting its use to the same persons. These last are those who have made the great vow (Num. 6:2), while those who are forbidden the use of strong drink are the ministering priests (Lev. 10:9); while of persons who take wine there are numberless instances among those whom he too holds in the highest admiration for their virtue.
