Probably from H5059 (in the sense of treading out grapes); a wine press (or vat for holding the grapes in pressing them).

Isaiah 63:2

_ _ The prophet asks why His garments are “dyed” and “red.”

_ _ winefat — rather, the “wine-press,” wherein the grapes were trodden with the feet; the juice would stain the garment of him who trod them (Revelation 14:19, Revelation 14:20; Revelation 19:15). The image was appropriate, as the country round Bozrah abounded in grapes. This final blow inflicted by Messiah and His armies (Revelation 19:13-15) shall decide His claim to the kingdoms usurped by Satan, and by the “beast,” to whom Satan delegates his power. It will be a day of judgment to the hostile Gentiles, as His first coming was a day of judgment to the unbelieving Jews.
