The Samaritan "bound up his wounds, pouring oil and wine upon them." (Luke 10:34) This was a customary way to care for injuries. Olive oil would soften and soothe the wounds. But what about wine? The Journal of the American Medical Association said: "Wine was a principal medicine in Greece. . . . Hippocrates of Cos (460-370 BC) . . . made extensive use of wine, prescribing it as a wound dressing, a cooling agent for fevers, a purgative, and a diuretic." Jesus' illustration alluded to the antiseptic and disinfectant properties of wine, as well as the effectiveness of olive oil in helping to heal wounds.
