Luke 5:34

On Fasting

³³ But, they, said unto him - The disciples of John, do fast much, and, supplications, do make, - likewise also the disciples of the Pharisees; but, thine, do eat and drink! ³⁴ Jesus, however, said unto them - Can, ye make, the sons of the bridechamber, fast, while the bridegroom is with them? ³⁵ But there will come days, even when the bridegroom shall be taken from them, then, will they fast, in those days.
