In Acts 2:13, the genitive singular neuter form occurs in the claim that the people “are filled with sweet wine”; the APB presents the clause as a derisive accusation.
In the Anselm Project Bible: In Acts 2:13, the APB renders the accusation with “sweet wine.” This rendering is treated as confirmation of the clause rather than a precise lexical mapping.
