A Question About Fasting
14 Then the disciples of John *came to Him, [a]asking, “Why do we and (A)the Pharisees fast, but Your disciples do not fast?” 15 And Jesus said to them, “Can the [b]attendants of the bridegroom mourn as long as the bridegroom is with them? But the days will come when the bridegroom is taken away from them, and then they will fast. 16 But no one puts [c]a patch of unshrunk cloth on an old garment; for [d]the patch pulls away from the garment, and a worse tear results.
