38. Luk_10:34
Luke 10:34 : “Pouring in oil and wine.” This was an external and medicinal application. The mixture of the two formed a healing ointment. Pliny mentions “oleum gleucinum, which was compounded of oil and gleucus (sweet wine), as an excellent ointment for wounds.” “Columella gives the receipt for making it”—Bible Commentary, p. 297.
