“They gave him vinegar to drink mingled with gall: and when he had tasted thereof, he would not drink.”
King James Version (KJV)
27:34 They gave him vinegar mingled with gall - Out of derision: which, however nauseous, he received and tasted of. St. Mark mentions also a different mixture which was given him, Wine mingled with myrrh: such as it was customary to give to dying criminals, to make them less sensible of their sufferings: but this our Lord refused to taste, determining to bear the full force of his pains.
Mt 27:34 They gave him vinegar to drink mingled with gall. A stupefying drink, intended to lessen suffering. He would not drink. The "tasting" implied a recognition of the kindly purpose of the act, but a recognition only. In the refusal to do more than taste, we trace the resolute purpose to drink the cup which his Father had given him to the last drop.
ΒΆ They gaue him vineger to drinke, mingled with gall: and when hee had tasted thereof, hee would not drinke.
