Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary:
Glutton
   (Deut. 21:20), Heb. zolel, from a word meaning "to shake out,"
   "to squander;" and hence one who is prodigal, who wastes his
   means by indulgence. In Prov. 23:21, the word means debauchees
   or wasters of their own body. In Prov. 28:7, the word (pl.) is
   rendered Authorized Version "riotous men;" Revised Version,
   "gluttonous." Matt. 11:19, Luke 7:34, Greek phagos, given to
   eating, gluttonous.
The Devil's Dictionary (1881-1906):
GLUTTON, n.  A person who escapes the evils of moderation by
committing dyspepsia.
