Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Greek equivalent often associated with the concept of juice or wine is οἶνος (oinos), Strong's Greek #3631, which is used in the New Testament to refer to wine.

Usage: The Hebrew word "mits" refers to the juice or extract of a fruit, often used in the context of wine or other liquid extractions. It conveys the idea of something being pressed out or squeezed, typically from grapes or other fruits. In the biblical context, it is often associated with abundance and blessing, as the production of juice or wine was a sign of prosperity and divine favor.

Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, agriculture was a central part of life, and the production of wine was a significant industry. Grapes were one of the seven species of the land of Israel, and their juice was a staple in the diet. Wine was used in religious ceremonies, daily meals, and as a symbol of joy and celebration. The process of extracting juice from grapes involved treading them in a winepress, a communal activity that was both labor-intensive and festive.
