Topical Encyclopedia

The term "drinketh" is an archaic form of the verb "drink," commonly found in older translations of the Bible, such as the King James Version. It is used to describe the act of consuming liquid, often in the context of water or wine. In the Berean Standard Bible , the more contemporary term "drinks" is typically used, but the concept remains significant throughout Scripture.

Old Testament Context

In the Old Testament, drinking is often associated with sustenance and hospitality. For instance, inGenesis 24:14, Rebekah is identified as Isaac's future wife when she offers water to Abraham's servant and his camels: "Now may it be that the girl to whom I say, ‘Please let down your jar that I may drink,’ and who replies, ‘Drink, and I will water your camels too,’—let her be the one You have appointed for Your servant Isaac." This act of offering a drink is a sign of kindness and generosity.

The consumption of wine is also prevalent in the Old Testament, both as a symbol of blessing and as a potential source of moral failure. InProverbs 20:1, the dangers of excessive drinking are highlighted: "Wine is a mocker, strong drink is raging: and whosoever is deceived thereby is not wise." This verse warns against the pitfalls of overindulgence, emphasizing the importance of moderation.

New Testament Context

In the New Testament, the act of drinking takes on additional spiritual significance. Jesus uses the metaphor of drinking to convey deeper theological truths. InJohn 4:13-14, Jesus speaks to the Samaritan woman at the well: "Jesus said to her, 'Everyone who drinks this water will be thirsty again. But whoever drinks the water I give him will never thirst. Indeed, the water I give him will become in him a fount of water springing up to eternal life.'" Here, drinking symbolizes the reception of eternal life through faith in Christ.

The Last Supper is another pivotal moment involving drinking, where Jesus institutes the Lord's Supper. InMatthew 26:27-28, Jesus shares the cup with His disciples: "Then He took the cup, gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying, 'Drink from it, all of you. This is My blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins.'" The act of drinking the wine is a profound symbol of the new covenant and the sacrificial death of Christ.

Theological Implications

Theologically, the concept of drinking in the Bible often points to deeper spiritual truths. It can represent the sustenance provided by God, the joy and fellowship found in community, and the spiritual nourishment that comes from a relationship with Christ. The act of drinking, whether literal or metaphorical, is frequently tied to themes of life, blessing, and covenant.

Practical Applications

For believers, the biblical references to drinking serve as reminders of the importance of moderation, the value of hospitality, and the necessity of spiritual sustenance. Christians are encouraged to seek the "living water" that Christ offers, which satisfies the deepest spiritual thirst and leads to eternal life. Additionally, the practice of the Lord's Supper remains a central act of worship, commemorating the sacrifice of Jesus and the new covenant established through His blood.
