But when the king came in to see the wedding guests, he saw a man there who was not wearing wedding clothes.

Three days after, there was a wedding at Cana in Galilee; where the mother of Jesus was present.

And ye yourselves like unto men that wait for their lord, when he will return from the wedding; that when he cometh and knocketh, they may open unto him immediately.

When thou art bidden of any man to a wedding, sit not down in the highest room; lest a more honourable man than thou be bidden of him;

"The kingdom of heaven may be compared to a man--a king--who gave a wedding celebration for his son.

And he sent his slaves to summon those who had been invited to the wedding celebration, and they did not want to come.

Again he sent other slaves, saying, 'Tell those who have been invited, "Behold, I have prepared my dinner; my oxen and fattened [cattle] have been slaughtered, and everything [is] ready. Come to the wedding celebration!" '

Then he said to his slaves, 'The wedding celebration is ready, but those who had been invited were not worthy.

Therefore, go out to the [places where] the roads exit the city and invite to the wedding celebration as many [people] as you find.'

And those slaves went out into the roads [and] gathered everyone whom they found, both evil and good, and the wedding celebration was filled {with dinner guests}.

And he said to him, 'Friend, how did you come in here, not having wedding clothes?' But {he could say nothing}.

But [while] they had gone away to buy [it] the bridegroom arrived, and those who were ready went inside with him to the wedding celebration, and the door was shut.

And Jesus said unto them, "Can the wedding children mourn as long as the bridegroom is with them? The time will come, when the bridegroom shall be taken from them, and then shall they fast.

And Jesus said unto them, "Can the children of a wedding fast, while the bridegroom is with them? As long as they have the bridegroom with them, they cannot fast.

"'We played the wedding march for you, but you did not dance. We sang the funeral dirge, but you did not beat your breasts.'

And he said unto them, "Can ye make the Children of the wedding fast, as long as the bridegroom is present with them?

And both Jesus and his disciples were invited to the wedding.

They are like little children sitting in the market-place and calling to their fellows in the game: "'We played the wedding march for you, but you did not dance. We sang the funeral dirge, but you did not mourn.'

Let us rejoice and be glad and give him the glory, because the wedding celebration of the Lamb has come, and his bride has prepared herself.

And he said to me, "Write: Blessed [are] those who are invited to the banquet of the wedding celebration of the Lamb!" And he said to me, "These are the true words of God."

Let love be without insincerity. Abhor what is evil; wed yourselves to what is good.

"Then the kingdom of heaven will be similar to ten bridesmaids who took their lamps and went out to meet the [bride and] groom. [Note: The picture here is that of a newly married couple returning from a festive reception to the groom's home where they continued celebrating and were welcomed by a late evening wedding party]

But when you are invited [i.e., to a wedding reception], go and recline at the least important seat, so that when the host comes [over to you], he will say, 'Friend, move up to a better seat.' Then you will be shown honor in front of everyone at the dinner table.

So, my brethren, to you also the Law died through the incarnation of Christ, that you might be wedded to Another, namely to Him who rose from the dead in order that we might yield fruit to God.
