THE OLD MINISTRY AND THE NEW

Can ye make the children of the bridechamber fast, while
the bridegroom is with them? But the days will come,
when the bridegroom shall be taken away from them, and
then shall they fast in those days.

No man putteth a piece of a new garment upon an old; if 12 otherwise, then both the new maketh a rent; and the piece that was taken out of the new agreeth not with the old.

And no man putteth new wine into old bottles; else the new 13 wine will burst the bottles and be spilled, and the bottles shall perish.

14 But new wine must be put into new bottles; and both are preserved.
