Luke 5:27-38

27After these things, Yeshua went out and observed a tax collector named Levi, sitting at the tax booth. He said to him, “Follow Me.”

28And leaving everything, he got up and followed Him.

29Levi made a great banquet for Yeshua at his house, and there was a large crowd of tax collectors and others who were reclining with them.

30The Pharisees and their Torah scholars began murmuring to His disciples, saying, “Why do you eat and drink with tax collectors and sinners?”

31And Yeshua answered and said to them, “Those who are healthy have no need for a doctor, but those who are sick do.

32I did not come to call the righteous, but the sinful to repentance.”

33But they said to Him, “John’s disciples often fast and offer prayers, as do the disciples of the Pharisees. But Your disciples are eating and drinking.”

34But Yeshua said to them, “You cannot make the guests of the bridegroom fast while the bridegroom is with them, can you?

35But the days will come; and when the bridegroom is taken away from them, then they will fast in those days.”

36Now he was also telling them a parable. “No one tears a patch from a new garment to use it on an old garment. Otherwise he will rip the new, and the patch from the new will not match the old.

37And no one puts new wine into old wineskins. Otherwise, the new wine will burst the skins, it will be spilled out, and the skins will be destroyed.

38But new wine must be put into fresh wineskins.
