Psa 78:65 Then the Lord rose up as though waking from sleep, like a warrior aroused from a drunken stupor.
Psalms 78:65
Then the Lord awaked as one out of sleep,.... He seemed to be asleep, while he suffered the ark to be taken, and the Israelites to be slain; and he may be said to awake when he exerted his power in smiting the Philistines, and causing their idol to fall before his ark; see Psa_7:6,
and like a mighty man that shouteth by reason of wine; who having taken a free draught of generous wine, not to excess, goes forth with great courage and cheerfulness to meet his adversary, shouting as he goes, being sure of victory; which must be applied to God with decency, consistent with the glory of his majesty, and the perfections of his nature; and seems designed to express his power and readiness to help his people, and avenge himself on his enemies; see Isa_42:13.
Beer and wine was involved?
The psalmist’s opinion or analogy, the LORD is not a man that he should... get drunk.
Not every scripture attributes to GOD, but man’s commentary.
Hence, content, context and condition applies to understanding.
