~ Paulus schrieb an die Corinthen ~
|
|
The second line of the verse is an idiomatic expression that
St. Paul apparently observed about the Corinthians, but with his
hand on the beer stein doesn't mean he disapproved. Ancient
Corinth is said to have been a "sin city" where everything goes.
The glass stein has elements of Jugendstil
(youth style = modern art), ca. early 1900's.
