We find in the Torah:

                  “ The Lord intercalated with Aaron (Harun) saying: “Drink not wine and any intoxicant,  you and your descendants, that you may not ruin :( it is) an obligation upon your descendants for ever.”

            In the Book of Maxims of the Prophet Solomon (Sulaiman) we read:

            “ For whom is ruin?  For whom is wretchedness ?  For whom lies contentions ?  For whom is distress ?  For whom are wounds without any cause and whose eyes are contracted ? – for those who are addicted to wine- those who are in quest for a bitter mixture of wine.”

            “Look not towards wine when it turns red as it bubbles in the goblet and becomes very light to give pleasant taste.”

            “ But in the long run it stings the skin like a serpent and a snake.” (Chapter 23, Verses  : 29-33)

“Be not among the drunkards, among those who ruin their bodies for the drunkards and extravagants  create dissensions ; and those who sleep wear rags.” (Chapter 23, Verse: 20,21)

“Wine makes man a laughing stock and a drunkard turns himself vociferous and whosoever reels with both of them is not a wise-man.” (Chapter 20, Verses: 1,2)

  In the book of Ushah (peace be upon him), we read :

          “ Fornication and wine and juice of grapes injure the heart.”(Chapter 4, Verse 11)

In the Book of Prophet Sha’ya we find :

 “Ruin is for those who vax proud in the morning, follow the drunkards and lag behind in Divine blessings whereof wine makes them forgetful." (Chapter 5, Verse : 11)

“Eat not all that come out of wine stock and drink not wine or an intoxicant ; and eat not all impure things.” (Book of Judges, Chapter 13, Verse: 14)

In the Book of Prophet Armaya (peace be upon him), we have: “Drink not wine, you and your descendants, to the eternity.” (Chapter 35, Verse 6)

  Verse 3 of Chapter 4 of the Book of Peter I reads as:

         “Indeed we know the people who indulged in wickedness and ambitions as well as in addiction to wine, pride and group drinking and the unlawful worship of idols.”

In the letter of Bolis addressed to the people of Afsus, we find :

             “And be not drunkard with wine wherein lies debauchee but be filled with spirit.”

From the above quotations we can derive that ruin, wretchedness, excitement  of indignation, distress, bloody wounds, soring of eyes, trials and destructions, sting of the serpents, ruin of health, tomfoolery, mockery, scoff, debauchee, confusion, loss of intellect, heart-failure--all these abominable things victimize a person who drinks wine that is unlawful like ingratitude of Divine grace, arrogance and worship of idols.
