Ezra 6:9

And that which they have need of, both young bullocks, and rams, and lambs, for the burnt offerings of the God of heaven, wheat, salt, wine, and oil, according to the appointment of the priests which are at Jerusalem, let it be given them day by day without fail:
7

Let the work of this house of God alone; let the governor of the Jews and the elders of the Jews build this house of God in his place.

8

Moreover I make a decree what ye shall do to the elders of these Jews for the building of this house of God: that of the king’s goods, even of the tribute beyond the river, forthwith expenses be given unto these men, that they be not hindered.

9

And that which they have need of, both young bullocks, and rams, and lambs, for the burnt offerings of the God of heaven, wheat, salt, wine, and oil, according to the appointment of the priests which are at Jerusalem, let it be given them day by day without fail:

10

That they may offer sacrifices of sweet savours unto the God of heaven, and pray for the life of the king, and of his sons.

11

Also I have made a decree, that whosoever shall alter this word, let timber be pulled down from his house, and being set up, let him be hanged thereon; and let his house be made a dunghill for this.

Counter-Arguments

The strongest case that this verse does not belong in this theme.

Ritual / Sacred Use

The verse lists "wine" as one of several provisions, but it does not explicitly state that the wine itself is for a sacred use, only that it is to be given "according to the appointment of the priests."

Permissible Use (Moderation)

The verse lists wine as an item for temple offerings, not for general consumption or personal use, therefore it does not directly address the permissibility or moderation of wine in daily life.
