| John 2:10
| And saith to him: Every man at first setteth forth good wine, and when men have well drunk, then that which is worse: But thou hast kept the good wine until now.
| When men have well drank,{ Ver. 10. When they have drank well: cum inebriati fuerint, otan methusthosi. See Legh. Crit. Sac. on the word methuo.|} or plentifully; this is the literal sense: nor need we translate, when they are drunk, being spoken of such company, where our Saviour, Christ, his blessed Mother, and his disciples, were present. See (Genesis 43:34.; 1 Machabees 16:16.), where the same word may be taken in the same sense. (Witham)
