Mark 2:21-22

Make me new with a new heart for understanding and compassion. We are all sinners saved by grace!  Jesus by the power of the Holy Spirit will make all things new again.

It is time to sever the ties of the past and live in the present with an eye toward eternity!

Jesus emphasizes the change brought about by the kingdom’s arrival. This verse distinguishes between old and new. Faithlife Bible.

Mark records only four of Jesus’ parables—two of which he includes here. The comparison implies that the newness of His message, and of the new covenant to follow, cannot fit into the old molds of Judaism. The OT was preparation for the NT. NKJ Bible.

Mark 2:21–22 (NKJV)

21 No one sews a piece of unshrunk cloth on an old garment; or else the new piece pulls away from the old, and the tear is made worse. 22 And no one puts new wine into old wineskins; or else the new wine bursts the wineskins, the wine is spilled, and the wineskins are ruined. But new wine must be put into new wineskins.”
