Jesus begins to tell another parable. This one is about putting new wine into old wineskins rather than into new wineskins. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-parables]])
|
|
|
|
# new wine
|
|
|
|
"grape juice." This refers to wine that has not fermented yet. If grapes are unknown in your area, use the general term for fruit juice.
|
|
|
|
# old wineskins
|
|
|
|
This refers to wineskins that have been used many times.
|
|
|
|
# wineskins
|
|
|
|
These were bags made out of animal skins. They could also be called "wine bags" or "skin bags."
|
|
|
|
# the wine will burst the skins
|
|
|
|
New wine expands as it ferments, so it would cause old, brittle wineskins to tear open.
|
|
|
|
# are lost
|
|
|
|
"will be ruined"
|
|
|
|
# fresh wineskins
|
|
|
|
"new wineskins" or "new wine bags." This refers to wineskins that have never been used.
