Genesis 9:20

Gen 9:20 And Noah began [to be] an husbandman, and he planted a vineyard:

Ver. 20. And Noah began to be a husbandman. ] Veteres si quem virum, bonum colonum appellassent, amplissime laudasse existimabant. Cic. Nunquam vilior erat annona Romae, referente Plinio, quam cum terram colerent iidem qui Remp. regerent; quasi gauderet terra laureato vomere, scilicet, et Aratore triumphali. See 2 Chronicles 26:10 .

And he planted a vineyard. ] Hence Berosus and the poets call him Janus Oenotrius. Janus, of the Hebrew, iajin , vinum; and Oenotrius of οινος , whence our English word wine.
