Nazarites avoid dead flesh and fermented liquor and grapes. The nazir way is more of a LIFELONG COVENANT and livity than a vow with expiry date. This is the overstanding Iman get from the Spirit, that the Nazarite livity is more of a lifelong commitment than a vow with expiry date. The nazirite is supposed to abstain from flesh and wine all his life, and is much more than just a vow with expiry date, after which one returns to cannibalism and bloodbath and drunkard.
The Israelite Rabbis were probably selfish and interchanged the scriptures about the Nazarite vow where they prevented people from burying their mother and their father and eating fresh grape so less people would choose the Nazarite vow. It is common sense to bury your father and mother because as Selassie said, everyone human will be replaced by coming generations and no one is immortal, in the sense of the flesh. Also drinking fresh grape it will not fermented in the stomach but will encounter a highly acidic environment where it will be immediately digested and excreted. Any other fruit juice left to ferment over days will form alcohol. Scientific facts tell us all sugary fruits will fermented over days to create alcohol. I have heard of Banana wine, Apple cider, there's a popular alcoholic drink in my country made of fermented mangoes! People make rum out of sugarcane and beer out of papaya, so wine-making is not limited to grapes alone. Any fruit can make alcohol. So eating the fruits them ripe and fresh won't curse your Nazarite COVENANT.
This is all a matter of selfish, flesh eating Jewish rabbis who through their mix up writing prevented people from taking the Nazarite LIVITY.
Imagine a community of Nazarites living together. Who would bury their dead?
You realize the Nazarite is not supposed to come close to dead carcass and human corpse, but some nazirites of the bible slew people with the SWORD, like Samson and Samuel, Maccabees and David and Solomon.
therefore making the whole point useless as they came close to dead human ghost and did not denounce their vow. The major thing here is not to ingest (eat) dead carcass and human corpse, but if everyone was a Nazarite, then who would bury the deceased? The Nazarite Livity is for each and every of creation, however God limited the human lifespan, which can be prolonged by use of herbs and spice; but until the return of Ras Tafari Makonnen in flesh then the foolish will die at a hundred.
