Commentary on Proverbs 9:5
Come, eat my bread and drink my wine I've mixed. Wisdom's invitation: participate in her feast. The Hebrew 'lacham' (bread) and 'yayin' (wine) are basic sustenance and celebratory abundance. Wisdom offers both necessity and pleasure, both nourishment and joy. Coming to wisdom provides what's needed and what delights. This anticipates communion - bread and wine representing Christ's body and blood, spiritual nourishment and joy.
