I came not to call the righteous, but to call sinners to
repentance.
Then they said to Him, Why do the disciples of John fast often and make
prayers, and likewise the disciples of the Pharisees; but your
disciples eat and drink? Jesus said to them, Can ye make the children
of the bridechamber fast while the bridegroom is with them? The days
will come when the bridegroom shall be taken away from them. Then they
shall fast.
He spoke also a parable to them. No man puts a piece of a new garment
on an old one; if he does, the new makes a rent, and the piece that was
taken out of the new does not match the old. And no man puts new wine
into old bottles; else the new wine will burst the bottles, be spilled,
and the bottles shall perish. But new wine must be put into new
bottles; and both are preserved. No man, having drunk old wine,
straightway desires new, because he says, The old is better.
6 It came to pass that on the second sabbath after the first,
Jesus passed through corn fields; and His disciples plucked ears of
corn to eat, rubbing them in their hands. Certain of the Pharisees said
to them, Why do ye do that which is not lawful on the sabbath days?
Jesus answering them said, Have ye not read what David did, when he and
those who were with him were hungry? How he went into the house of God,
took the showbread to eat, and also gave it to those who were with him;
which is not lawful to eat and is only for the priests? Jesus said to
them, The Son of man is also Lord of the sabbath.
