What does gall to whine mean?

That depends on whether you actually mean 'whine' or if you have a typo for 'wine'. You might say something like 'I don't know how she has the gall to whine' meaning that you are surprised someone has the effrontery to complain. On the other hand gall is a bitter substance, and 'wine mixed with gall' was offered to Christ when He was dying on the cross. Why the wine was mixed with gall is a matter for debate, as people have different theories about exactly what it was, but adding gall to wine makes it bitter.

What did Jesus drink On The Cross?

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.


Was Jesus offered opium when on cross?

There is no historical evidence of this. Rather, the verses from the New Testament say he was offered bitter wine, a way for his Roman captors to further torment him. Some people have written books or articles in which they asserted that "gall" was some sort of narcotic, but the word is not used that way in either the Hebrew Bible or the Greek Scriptures, where is carries a meaning of something bitter or poisonous.
