Exegesis
The coordinated nouns uvasar {וּבָשָׂר | ûḇāśār} ‘meat’ and vayayin {וָיַיִן | vāyayin} ‘wine’ follow the negation lo-ba {לֹא־בָא | lōʾ-ḇāʾ} ‘did not come,’ creating parallel refusal.
In context — Daniel 10:3
I ate no desirable bread , nor did meat or wine enter my mouth, nor did I anoint myself at all , until the completion of three weeks.
