cupA container or a vessel from which one drinks, a small bowl-shaped drinking container with a handle. DTP In Scripture, the cup can refer both the obvious physical object or it can refer to the challenges of life which we are given. The communion cup is an example of this. The cup's contents can represent both sweet and bitter things that one may be asked to drink. We also need to be careful which "cup" one drinks from as one cup may poison and another can give life. Christ is our cupbearer.
