Yahweh the Nazir

When you enter the land, Yahweh says, you will offer ascension offers with tributes of grain and with wine. The wine is the new thing, the addition to Yahweh’s diet as Israel enters the land.
Yahweh is the model Nazirite, refraining from wine and strong drink until He has driven out the Canaanites and brought His people into the land.
