Abstract

The Old Testament offers significant lessons in the use and abuse of alcohol and may also contain pertinent clues as to why Jews, rarely abstinent, evince a remarkably low incidence of addictive drinking. Some observations are offered within the context of a modern classificatory system suggested in the Major and Minor Criteria for the Diagnosis of Alcohol outlined in 1972 by the National Council of Alcoholism in the United States.
