They are frequently mentioned throughout the Scriptures, reflecting their central role in the agricultural and economic life of ancient Israel. Biblical References and Symbolism Grapes are first mentioned in <a href="/genesis/9-20.htm">Genesis 9:20-21</a>, where Noah, a man of the soil, plants a vineyard and becomes drunk on the wine produced from the grapes. This early reference sets the stage for the dual nature of grapes and wine in the Bible, representing both blessing and potential moral pitfalls. In the Promised Land, grapes are a symbol of the land's fertility and God's provision. When the twelve spies were sent to explore Canaan, they returned with a cluster of grapes so large that it had to be carried on a pole between two men (<a href="/numbers/13-23.htm">Numbers 13:23</a>). This imagery underscores the abundance and prosperity that awaited the Israelites in the land God had promised them. The grapevine is also used metaphorically to describe Israel. In <a href="/psalms/80-8.htm">Psalm 80:8-9</a>, the psalmist writes, "You uprooted a vine from Egypt; You drove out the nations and transplanted it. You cleared the ground for it, and it took root and filled the land." Here, the vine represents Israel, planted and nurtured by God, intended to bear fruit for His glory. Grapes in Worship and Sacrifice Grapes and their byproduct, wine, were integral to the sacrificial system and religious observances. In <a href="/leviticus/23-13.htm">Leviticus 23:13</a>, wine is included as a drink offering during the Feast of Weeks, signifying joy and celebration in the presence of the Lord. The use of wine in offerings highlights its role as a symbol of thanksgiving and covenant relationship with God. Moral and Ethical Teachings The Bible also addresses the ethical implications of wine consumption. <a href="/proverbs/20.htm">Proverbs 20:1</a> warns, "Wine is a mocker, strong drink is raging, and whoever is led astray by them is not wise." This cautionary note reflects the potential for grapes, when fermented into wine, to lead to excess and moral compromise. Conversely, wine is also seen as a gift from God that brings joy and gladness. <a href="/psalms/104-14.htm">Psalm 104:14-15</a> states, "He makes the grass grow for the livestock and provides crops for man to cultivate, bringing forth food from the earth: wine that gladdens the heart of man, oil that makes his face shine, and bread that sustains his heart." This passage acknowledges the rightful enjoyment of God's creation when used in moderation and gratitude. New Testament Context In the New Testament, grapes and wine continue to hold symbolic significance. Jesus' first miracle at the wedding in Cana involved turning water into wine (<a href="/john/2.htm">John 2:1-11</a>), demonstrating His divine authority and the joy of the new covenant. Furthermore, during the Last Supper, Jesus used wine as a symbol of His blood, shed for the forgiveness of sins (<a href="/matthew/26-27.htm">Matthew 26:27-28</a>). The imagery of the vine and branches in <a href="/john/15.htm">John 15:1-5</a> further emphasizes the relationship between Christ and His followers. Jesus declares, "I am the true vine, and My Father is the vinedresser. Every branch in Me that bears no fruit, He takes away; and every branch that does bear fruit, He prunes to make it even more fruitful." This metaphor illustrates the necessity of abiding in Christ to bear spiritual fruit. Conclusion Throughout the Bible, grapes serve as a powerful symbol of God's provision, the potential for both blessing and moral challenge, and the deep spiritual truths of the Christian faith. Their presence in Scripture invites believers to reflect on the abundance of God's creation and the call to live fruitful lives in Christ.<a name="amt" id="amt"></a><div class="vheading2">ATS Bible Dictionary</div>GrapesThe fruit of the vine. The grapes of Palestine were very fine, of great size and high flavor, <a href="/numbers/13-24.htm">Numbers 13:24</a>. At present, and probably the same has always been true, the wine that is made requires but a small part of the annual yield of the vines. Dr. Robinson says, "No wine is made from the very extensive vineyards of Hebron, except a little by the Jews." While yet green, grapes are used for food in various ways; and are dried in the sun, or their juice preserved in bottles, to secure a pleasant vegetable tart all the year round, <a href="/numbers/6-4.htm">Numbers 6:4</a>. Ripe grapes may be had in Syria four or five months, Le 26:5; and when the season closes many are hung up in clusters, suitably protected, and remain without drying up all through the winter. Grapes are exceedingly cheap, and form no small part of the ordinary food. Ripe grapes are also dried into raisins; and after the hanging grapes are gone, the raisins are used until the return of new grapes. Besides the law which protected the first three years' growth of the vine, (see <a href="../f/fruits.htm">FRUITS</a>,) there was another law requiring the Jews to leave the gleanings of their vineyards for the poor, Le 19:10,23. The law also allowed one who was passing a vineyard to pick a few grapes to eat on the spot, but not to carry any away, De 23:24. Everywhere we encounter proofs of the admirable humanity that characterized the Mosaic legislation. A vineyard nearly stripped of its clustered treasures was a frequent image of desolation, <a href="/isaiah/17-6.htm">Isaiah 17:6</a> 24:13 <a href="/obadiah/1-5.htm">Obadiah 1:5</a>. See <a href="../v/vine.htm">VINE</a>. "Wild grapes" were the fruit of a wild vine, probably the Vitis Labrusca of Linnaeus, the wild claret-grape. The fruit of the wild vine is called oenanthes, of the flower of wine. They never ripen, and are good only for verjuice. In <a href="/context/isaiah/5-2.htm">Isaiah 5:2</a>,4, God complains of his people whom he had planted as a choice vine, an excellent plant, that he had a right to require of them good fruit, but they had brought forth only wild grapes-fruit of a bad smell, and a bad taste. <a name="isb" id="isb"></a><div class="vheading2">International Standard Bible Encyclopedia</div>GRAPES, WILD(be'ushim, <a href="/isaiah/5-2.htm">Isaiah 5:2, 4</a>): A word closely allied to bo'shah, <a href="/job/31-40.htm">Job 31:40</a>, translated "cockle" (which see).
