“Wine is a luxurious thing, and drunkenness riotous: whosoever is delighted therewith shell not be wise.”
“As it is said, "The priest and the prophet were deranged by wine." "Wine is licentious, drunkenness is bold. The person who indulges in them will not be exempt from sin." Wine is a good thing if you drink it with moderation. "If you set your eyes on cups and goblets you will walk naked as a pestle." Therefore, all who have prepared to become disciples of Jesus should abstain from wine and drunkenness.”
“Those who eat the heavenly bread become heavenly without doubt! Wine teaches us in that it makes those who are familiar with it like itself: for it hates those who are fond of it and is intoxicating and maddening and a mocker of them.”
“"Wine is a luxurious thing, and drunkenness is tumultuous; whoever delights in these will not be wise." And elsewhere: "Wine and women make the wise to fall away and will reprove the sensible." You have a ready example in that Solomon, who fell away on account of women even to the worship of idolatry, who nevertheless was filled with wisdom like a river. If there were a tavern in which wine were sold that would induce forgetfulness of all wisdom, I believe no one would be so foolish as to buy that wine. I believe that the eternal God, by the most high dispensation of his counsel, permitted Solomon to fall, so that he might teach all men to flee from women.”
The in-app commentary runs from the Fathers to the early-modern record, then stops — that's where the public-domain sources end, not where the reading does. For the modern reading, follow the sources directly.
