During his time in the wilderness, Jesus fasted for 40 days and nights, which means he did not eat or drink anything during that time.
Jesus ate food and had a drink to demonstrate that He was rally alive as a physical person, not just a Spirit. He also showed them the scars in His side and the nail prints where He had been nailed to the cross.It is quite true to say that dead men don't eat food and drink. Jesus was not dead and so this is why He did this.

No, Jesus did not drink while fasting.
Jesus had said they you should eat bread and drink wine. This is in the bible. ASKER: This answer pretty much just restates my question. What I am hoping for is an answer that explains the significance of each separate item and why we need to ingest each and not just one. Please refrain from an answer such as, "Because Jesus said so". Thank you.
