Luke 23:36 tells us that the soldiers offered Jesus some sour wine while He was on the cross, and Matthew 27:34 tells us that this wine was mixed with gall. This Gall is thought to have been Myrrh, which is a narcotic, and it is said that the Jews would offer this to person's being crucified in order to lessen their pain. Jesus refused this drink as He was to taste the full brunt of sin and death on the cross to satisfy God the Father in heaven because He was the One and only sacrifice for the sins of mankind.
