Jesus Questioned About Fasting
Then John's disciples
came to him, saying, "Why do we and the Pharisees fast often, but
your disciples don't fast?"
Jesus said to them,
"Can the friends of the bridegroom mourn, as long as
the bridegroom is with them? But the days will come when the bridegroom
will be taken away from them, and then they will fast. No one puts a piece of unshrunk
cloth on an old garment; for the patch would tear away from the garment,
and a worse hole is made. Neither do people put new wine
into old wineskins, or else the skins would burst, and the wine be
spilled, and the skins ruined. No, they put new wine into fresh wineskins,
and both are preserved."
Matthew 9:14-17
