Mat 9:10-17; Mk 2:15-22; Lk 5:29-39
Matt 9:10-17
10 Now it happened, as Jesus sat at the table in the house, that behold, many tax collectors and sinners
came and sat down with Him and His disciples.
11 And when the Pharisees saw it, they said to His disciples, "Why does your Teacher eat with tax
collectors and sinners?"
12 When Jesus heard that, He said to them, "Those who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick.
13 "But go and learn what this means: 'I desire mercy and not sacrifice.' For I
did not come to call the righteous, but sinners, to repentance."
14 Then the disciples of John came to Him, saying, "Why do we and the Pharisees fast often, but Your
disciples do not fast?"
15 And 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.
16 "No one puts a piece of unshrunk cloth on an old garment; for the patch pulls
away from the garment, and the tear is made worse.
17 "Nor do they put new wine into old wineskins, or else the wineskins break, the wine is spilled, and the wineskins are
ruined. But they put new wine into new wineskins, and both are preserved."
Mark 2:15-22
15 Now it happened, as He was dining in Levi's house, that many tax collectors
and sinners also sat together with Jesus and His disciples; for there were many,
and they followed Him.
16 And when the scribes and Pharisees saw Him eating with the tax collectors and sinners, they said
to His disciples, "How is it that He eats and drinks with tax collectors and
sinners?"
17 When Jesus heard it, He said to them, "Those who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick. I did
not come to call the righteous, but sinners, to repentance."
18 The disciples of John and of the Pharisees were fasting. Then they came and
said to Him, "Why do the disciples of John and of the Pharisees fast, but Your
disciples do not fast?"
19 And Jesus said to them, "Can the friends of the bridegroom fast while the bridegroom is with them? As long as they have the bridegroom
with them they cannot fast.
20 "But the days will come when the bridegroom will be taken away from them, and
then they will fast in those days.
21 "No one sews a piece of unshrunk cloth on an old garment; or else the new
piece pulls away from the old, and the tear is made worse.
22 "And no one puts new wine into old wineskins; or else the new wine bursts the
wineskins, the wine is spilled, and the wineskins are ruined. But new wine must
be put into new wineskins."
Luke 5:29-39
29 Then Levi gave Him a great feast in his own house. And there were a great number of tax
collectors and others who sat down with them.
30 And their scribes and the Pharisees complained against His disciples, saying,
"Why do You eat and drink with tax collectors and sinners?"
31 Jesus answered and said to them, "Those who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick.
32 "I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners, to repentance."
33 Then they said to Him, "Why do the disciples of John fast often and make
prayers, and likewise those of the Pharisees, but Yours eat and drink?"
34 And He said to them, "Can you make the friends of the bridegroom fast while the bridegroom is with
them?
35 "But the days will come when the bridegroom will be taken away from them; then
they will fast in those days."
36 Then He spoke a parable to them: "No one puts a piece from a new garment on an old one; otherwise the new makes
a tear, and also the piece that was taken out of the new does not match the
old.
37 "And no one puts new wine into old wineskins; or else the new wine will burst
the wineskins and be spilled, and the wineskins will be ruined.
38 "But new wine must be put into new wineskins, and both are preserved.
39 "And no one, having drunk old wine, immediately desires new; for he says, 'The
old is better.'"
