TOPIC: WHY HE REFUSED THE MYRRH!

BASIC SCRIPTURE: MARK 15: 20-32

Matthew records that as Jesus went to the cross, “They gave Him vinegar to drink mingled with gall: and when He had tasted thereof, He would not drink” (Matthew 27:34). Mark described the drink as wine mingled with myrrh (Mark 15:23). As a pharmacist, I know that VINEGAR is a sour tasting acetic acid drink and MYRRH IS A PAIN RELIEVER (an analgesic); it also has anti-inflammatory effects and reduces body weight, etc.

From tests on mice, chemists at the University of Florence in Italy, have found that molecules in myrrh act on the brain’s opioid receptors, explaining its PAIN KILLING ACTION! The drink offered to Jesus was a cheap Roman vinegar wine, MIXED WITH A DRUG (MYRRH) to dull the senses. It was the custom of the Romans to offer a man being crucified DRUGGED WINE so that he might more easily endure his cross. Jesus refused the wine however, apparently so that He could go through His suffering with a clear mind AS A HUMAN BEING and this was to enable Him TAKE YOUR PAIN! Wow!

Yes! He was both God and MAN, so He needed to FEEL YOUR PAIN as a man! As He neared death, Jesus said, “I thirst!” (John 19: 28). One of the prominent effects of crucifixion was DEHYDRATION which leads to a STRONG DESIRE FOR WATER (THIRST) due to the loss of body fluids through open body wounds and perspiration. The LORD refused the Vinegar mixed with MYRRH (Mark 15: 23) but He took the ordinary Vinegar (John 19: 29). He took the ordinary SOUR (acidic) VINEGAR because at the point of death, He needed to say His final words: His parched lips and throat needed moisture, so He accepted the vinegar; but rejected the one that would make Him not to feel your PAIN!
