Gospel
text (Mathew 9,14-17):
John's disciples came to Jesus and said, «How is it that we and the Pharisees
fast on many occasions, but not your disciples?». Jesus answered them, «How can
you expect wedding guests to mourn as long as the bridegroom is with them? Time
will come when the bridegroom will be taken away from them, then they will
fast. No one patches an old coat with a piece of unshrunken cloth, for the patch
will shrink and tear an even bigger hole in the coat. Besides you don't put new
wine in old wineskins. If you do, the wineskins will burst and the wine be
spilt. No, you put new wine in fresh skins; then both are preserved».
