Mark 2:13-22

Jesus  went out again beside the sea. The whole crowd was coming to him, and he was teaching  them. Then, passing by, he saw Levi  the son of Alphaeus sitting at the tax office,  and he said to him, “Follow me,”   and he got up and followed  him. While he was reclining at the table in Levi’s house, many tax collectors  and sinners  were eating  with Jesus and his disciples, for there were many who were following him. When the scribes  who were Pharisees  , saw that he was eating  with sinners  and tax collectors,  they asked his disciples, “Why does he eat  with tax collectors and sinners? ” When Jesus heard this, he told them, “It is not those who are well who need   a doctor,   but those who are sick.   I didn’t come to call the righteous,   but sinners.”   Now  John’s  disciples  and the Pharisees  , were fasting.  People came and asked him, “Why do John’s disciples and the Pharisees’ disciples fast, but your disciples do not fast? ” Jesus said to them, “The wedding guests cannot fast while the groom   is with them, can they? As long as they have the groom with them, they cannot fast. But the time   will come   when the groom will be taken away from them,   and then they will fast   on that day. No one sews a patch of unshrunk cloth on an old garment. Otherwise, the new patch pulls away from the old cloth,   and a worse tear is made. And no one puts new wine   into old wineskins. Otherwise, the wine will burst   the skins, and the wine is lost as well as the skins. No, new wine is put into fresh wineskins.”
