2 What is a winepress? Key questions What is it about the grapes that are harvested? What is the significance of the winepress & the harvest? Cup of blood, Cup of Wrath (Fury)? Who harvests and treads the grapes in the winepress? Babylon?

3 Matthew (Mateo) 21:33 Hear another parable: There was a certain landowner who planted a vineyard and set a hedge around it, dug a winepress in it and built a tower. And he leased it to vinedressers and went into a far country.

4 Matthew (Mateo) 21:34-35 Now when vintage-time drew near, he sent his servants to the vinedressers, that they might receive its fruit. And the vinedressers took his servants, beat one, killed one, and stoned another.

5 Matthew (Mateo) 21:38-39 But when the vinedressers saw the son, they said among themselves, This is the heir. Come, let us kill him and seize his inheritance. So they took him and cast [him] out of the vineyard and killed [him]. (Fruits?)

6 Matthew (Mateo) 21:40-41 Therefore, when the owner of the vineyard comes, what will he do to those vinedressers? They said to him, "He will destroy those wicked men miserably, and lease [his] vineyard to other vinedressers who will render to him the fruits in their seasons.

7 Matthew (Mateo) 21:33 Hear another parable: There was a certain landowner who planted a vineyard and set a hedge around it, dug a winepress in it and built a tower. And he leased it to vinedressers and went into a far country.

10 Isaiah (Isaias) 5:3-4 And now, O inhabitants of Jerusalem and men of Judah, judge, please, between Me and My vineyard. What more could have been done to My vineyard that I have not done in it? Why then, when I expected [it] to bring forth [good] grapes, did it bring forth wild grapes?

11 Deuteronomy (Deuteronomio) 32:32-33 For their vine [is] of the vine of Sodom and of the fields of Gomorrah; their grapes [are] grapes of gall, their clusters [are] bitter. Their wine [is] the poison of serpents, and the cruel venom of cobras.

12 Micah (Miqueas) 7:1-2 Woe is me! For I am like those who gather summer fruits, like those who glean vintage grapes; [There is no] cluster to eat of the first-ripe fruit [which] my soul desires. The faithful [man] has perished from the earth, and [there is] no one upright among men. They all lie in wait for blood; every man hunts his brother with a net. (Fruits?)

13 Micah (Miqueas) 7:4 The best of them [is] like a brier; the most upright [is sharper] than a thorn hedge; the day of your watchman and your punishment comes; now shall be their perplexity.

14

15 Galatians (Galatas) 5:19-21 Now the works (Fruits) of the flesh are evident, which are: adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lewdness, idolatry, sorcery, hatred, contentions, jealousies, outbursts of wrath, selfish ambitions, dissensions, heresies, envy, murders, drunkenness, revelries, and the like; of which I tell you beforehand, just as I also told [you] in time past, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of Elohim.

16 Matthew (Mateo) 7:16-18,20 You will know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes from thornbushes or figs from thistles? Even so, every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit. A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor [can] a bad tree bear good fruit. Therefore by their fruits you will know them.

17 דּ ם Blood- life source Blood shed Figuratively- Juice of a grape

18 Joel 3:12-13 "Let the nations be wakened, and come up to the Valley of Jehoshaphat; for there I will sit to judge all the surrounding nations. Put in the sickle, for the harvest is ripe. Come, go down; for the winepress is full, the vats overflow--for their wickedness [is] great."

19 Jeremiah (Jeremias) 25:30 "Therefore prophesy against them all these words, and say to them: 'YHVH will roar from on high, And utter His voice from His holy habitation; He will roar mightily against His fold. He will give a shout, as those who tread [the grapes], against all the inhabitants of the earth. (Yom Teruah?)

20 Revelation (Apocalipsis) 14:14-15 Then I looked, and behold, a white cloud, and on the cloud sat [One] like the Son of Man, having on His head a golden crown, and in His hand a sharp sickle. And another angel came out of the temple, crying with a loud voice to Him who sat on the cloud, "Thrust in Your sickle and reap, for the time has come for You to reap, for the harvest of the earth is ripe."

21 Revelation (Apocalipsis) 14:18-19 And another angel came out from the altar, who had power over fire, and he cried with a loud cry to him who had the sharp sickle, saying, "Thrust in your sharp sickle and gather the clusters of the vine of the earth, for her grapes are fully ripe." So the angel thrust his sickle into the earth and gathered the vine of the earth, and threw [it] into the great winepress of the wrath of Elohim.

22 Revelation (Apocalipsis) 14:20 And the winepress was trampled outside the city, and blood came out of the winepress, up to the horses' bridles, for one thousand six hundred furlongs.

23 Revelation (Apocalipsis) 16:5-6 And I heard the angel of the waters saying: "You are righteous, O YHVH, the One who is and who was and who is to be, because You have judged these things. For they have shed the blood of saints and prophets, and You have given them blood to drink. For it is their just due. (Eye for Eye- Blood, poison to drink?)

24 Isaiah (Isaias) 51:17 Awake, awake! Stand up, O Jerusalem, you who have drunk at the hand of YHVH The cup of His fury (wrath); you have drunk the dregs of the cup of trembling, [and] drained [it] out.

25 Jeremiah (Jeremias) 25:15-16 For thus says YHVH Elohim of Israel to me: "Take this wine cup of fury (wrath) from My hand, and cause all the nations, to whom I send you, to drink it. And they will drink and stagger and go mad because of the sword that I will send among them."

26 Psalms (Salmos) 75:7-8 But Elohim [is] the Judge: He puts down one, And exalts another. For in the hand of YHVH [there is] a cup, and the wine is red; it is fully mixed, and He pours it out; surely its dregs shall all the wicked of the earth drain [and] drink down.

27 Isaiah (Isaias) 63:1-2 Who [is] this who comes from Edom, with dyed garments from Bozrah, this [one who is] glorious in His apparel, traveling in the greatness of His strength?--"i who speak in righteousness, mighty to save." Why [is] Your apparel red, and Your garments like one who treads in the winepress?

28 Isaiah (Isaias) 63:3 "I have trodden the winepress alone, and from the peoples no one [was] with Me. For I have trodden them in My anger, and trampled them in My fury; their blood is sprinkled upon My garments, and I have stained all My robes.

29 Isaiah (Isaias) 63:4-5 For the day of vengeance [is] in My heart, and the year of My redeemed has come. I looked, but [there was] no one to help, and I wondered That [there was] no one to uphold; Therefore My own arm brought salvation for Me; And My own fury, it sustained Me. (Dt. 28:63-Rejoiced to destroy you.)

30 Genesis 49:8 "Judah, you [are he] whom your brothers shall praise; your hand [shall be] on the neck of your enemies; your father's children shall bow down before you.

31 Genesis 49:11 "Binding his donkey to the vine, and his donkey's colt to the choice vine, He washed his garments in wine, and his clothes in the blood of grapes.

32 Revelation (Apocalipsis) 19:11-12 Now I saw heaven opened, and behold, a white horse. And He who sat on him [was] called Faithful and True, and in righteousness He judges and makes war. His eyes [were] like a flame of fire, and on His head [were] many crowns. He had a name written that no one knew except Himself.

33 Revelation (Apocalipsis) 19:13 He [was] clothed with a robe dipped in blood, and His name is called The Word of Elohim.

34 Revelation (Apocalipsis) 19:15-16 Now out of His mouth goes a sharp sword, that with it He should strike the nations. And He Himself will rule them with a rod of iron. He Himself treads the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty Elohim. And He has on [His] robe and on His thigh a name written: KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS. (Not my words- Not my miracles- HIS will)

35 Revelation (Apocalipsis) 14:7-8 Saying with a loud voice, "Fear Elohim and give glory to Him, for the hour of His judgment has come; and worship Him who made heaven and earth, the sea and springs of water." And another angel followed, saying, "Babylon is fallen, is fallen, that great city, because she has made all nations drink of the wine of the wrath of her fornication."

36 Revelation (Apocalipsis) 16:19 Now the great city was divided into three parts, and the cities of the nations fell. And great Babylon was remembered before Elohim, to give her the cup of the wine of the fierceness of His wrath.

37 Revelation (Apocalipsis) 17:4 The woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet, and adorned with gold and precious stones and pearls, having in her hand a golden cup full of abominations and the filthiness of her fornication. (Fruits of the flesh)

38 Revelation (Apocalipsis) 18:24 And in her was found the blood of prophets and saints, and of all who were slain on the earth. (Vine dressers, Pharisees)

39 Matthew (Mateo) 21:40-41 Therefore, when the owner of the vineyard comes, what will he do to those vinedressers? They said to him, "He will destroy those wicked men miserably, and lease [his] vineyard to other vinedressers who will render to him the fruits in their seasons.

40 What is a winepress? Key questions What is it about the grapes that are harvested? What is the significance of the winepress & the harvest? Cup of blood, Cup of Wrath (Fury)? Who harvests and treads the grapes in the winepress? Babylon?

41 Deuteronomy (Deuteronomio) 30:19 "I call heaven and earth as witnesses today against you, [that] I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing; therefore choose life, that both you and your descendants may live.

42 Deuteronomy (Deuteronomio) 30:20 That you may love the LORD your God, that you may obey His voice, and that you may cling to Him, for He [is] your life and the length of your days; and that you may dwell in the land which the LORD swore to your fathers, to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, to give them.

43 Galatians (Galatas) 5:22-23 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law (teachings).

44 Psalms (Salmos) 116:13 I will take up the cup of salvation, and call upon the name of YHVH. (Who drank our Cup of Wrath?)
