It was customary for the Pharisees, and the disciples of John, to fast; they came therefore and ask'd him, why do John's disciples, and the Pharisees fast so frequently, and not your disciples? Jesus answered, can the bridemen fast, while the bridegroom is with them? as long as they have the bridegroom with them, they cannot fast. but the time will come, when the bridegroom shall be taken away from them, and then shall they fast. indeed no man ever sews a piece of new cloth on an old garment: because the new piece that is patch'd on, draws the old, and rends it still worse. so no man pours new wine into old skins, for that would burst them, and then both would be lost: but new wine must be put into new skins.

I came not to call saints, but sinners to repentance. Then they ask'd him, how comes it that John's disciples, and likewise those of the Pharisees, are frequently fasting and praying, while yours are employed in eating and drinking? to which he answered, would you have the bridemen fast, while the bridegroom is with them? however, the time will come, when the bridegroom shall be taken away from them, and then they will have occasions enow of fasting. Besides, he applied this similitude to them. no man, said he, puts a piece of new cloth upon an old coat: if he does, the new will strain the old, and they will by no means suit one another. nor will any one put new wine into old skins: if they do, the new wine will burst the skins, and wine and skins be all lost. but new wine must be put into new skins, and both will be preserv'd. so no-body that has been drinking old wine, will immediately call for new: for 'tis his maxim, "the old is best."
