219. Wine. When the context concerns the Lord, "wine" means divine truth emanating from his divine goodness, as does "blood": 1071, 1798, 6377. Wine in a general sense means good actions that come from caring: 6377. "New wine" means truth in the earthly self that grows out of goodness: 3580. Wine was called "the blood of grapes": 6378. A vineyard means the church in respect to the truth it has: 3220, 9139. The drink offering in sacrificial rituals, which was wine, meant spiritual goodness, which is holy truth: 10137. The Lord alone is holy, so everything that is holy comes from him: 9229, 9680, 10359, 10360. The divine truth that emanates from the Lord is what is called "holy" in the Word: 6788, 8302, 9229, 9820, 10361.
