Fascinating find. I wonder if the Smithsonian will be covering it.

Wine — one of the glories of Christian civilization. Of course, Christian didn’t invent it, but we certainly perfected it through our many religious communities. And of course, it truly becomes the Precious Blood of Our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass!

“I think the monastery was using [these presses] to make the holy wine, because it’s near to Mount Moses [Mount Sinai],” El-Naggar said, referring to the site where some believe the prophet Moses received the Ten Commandments from God.”

The Mohammedan has it about half right. Certainly the monks made the wine for the Eucharist; they also made it for drinking everyday. The fact that the monks made it at Sinai didn’t make it any more holy than wine made at any other monastery then or now. They made it there because that’s where they were!
