Marcos 2:22

22 Ni echa nadie vino nuevo en odres viejos. De hacerlo así, el vino hará reventar los odres y se arruinarán tanto el vino como los odres. Más bien, el vino nuevo se echa en odres nuevos.

Marcos 2:22 Meaning and Commentary

Mark 2:22

And no man putteth new wine into old bottles
By "old bottles" are meant, the Scribes and Pharisees, the whole, which needed not a physician, and the righteous, Christ came not to call; and by new wine, either the love of God, which is not shed abroad in the hearts of such persons; or the blessings of the new covenant, which are not bestowed upon them; or the Gospel, which brings an account of both, which is not received by carnal men:

else the new wine doth burst the bottles, and the wine is spilled,
and the bottles will be marred:
the Gospel will only fill them with rage and fury, and they will despise it, and let it go; which will be an aggravation of their sin and misery, and so will prove the savour of death unto death unto them:

but new wine must be put into new bottles;
into the hearts of sinners, who are called to repentance, and are renewed in the Spirit of their minds; are newborn babes, that desire the sincere milk of the word, and wine of the Gospel; in these the love of God is exceeding abundant, and it comes in with full flows into their souls; all grace is made to abound towards them, and the word of Christ richly dwells in them; in whom these things remain and abide, and they themselves are saved with an everlasting salvation; (See Gill on Matthew 9:17).

Marcos 2:22 In-Context

20 Pero llegará el día en que se les quitará el novio, y ese día sí ayunarán.

21 Nadie remienda un vestido viejo con un retazo de tela nueva. De hacerlo así, el remiendo fruncirá el vestido y la rotura se hará peor.

22 Ni echa nadie vino nuevo en odres viejos. De hacerlo así, el vino hará reventar los odres y se arruinarán tanto el vino como los odres. Más bien, el vino nuevo se echa en odres nuevos.

23 Un sábado, al cruzar Jesús los sembrados, sus discípulos comenzaron a arrancar a su paso unas espigas de trigo.

24 —Mira —le preguntaron los fariseos—, ¿por qué hacen ellos lo que está prohibido hacer en sábado?
