Listen to Luc 5:37
37 Personne non plus ne met le vin nouveau dans de vieux vaisseaux; autrement le vin nouveau romprait les vaisseaux, et se répandrait, et les vaisseaux seraient perdus.

Luc 5:37 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 5:37

And no man putteth new wine into old bottles
To which the Scribes and Pharisees are here compared, into whose hearts the new wine of Gospel grace was not put; or to whom was not made known the love of God Comparable to new wine; nor the blessings of the new covenant of grace, now exhibited; nor the truths of the Gospel now more clearly and newly revealed.

Else the new wine will burst the bottles, and be spilled;
they not being able to receive and bear these things, no, not the relation of them: these were hard sayings to them, of which they said, who can hear them? they could not hear them with patience, much less receive them in the love of them; but were at once filled with wrath and indignation, and rejected them.

And the bottles shall perish;
their condemnation shall be the greater.

Luc 5:37 In-Context

35 Mais des jours viendront où l'époux leur sera ôté; alors ils jeûneront en ces jours.
36 Il leur dit aussi une parabole: Personne ne met une pièce d'un habit neuf à un vieil habit; autrement, le neuf déchire le vieux, et la pièce prise du neuf ne s'accorde pas avec le vieux.
37 Personne non plus ne met le vin nouveau dans de vieux vaisseaux; autrement le vin nouveau romprait les vaisseaux, et se répandrait, et les vaisseaux seraient perdus.
38 Mais le vin nouveau se met dans des vaisseaux neufs, et les deux se conservent ensemble.
39 Et il n'y a personne qui, buvant du vin vieux, en veuille aussitôt du nouveau; car, dit-il, le vieux est meilleur.
