What prompted Jesus to discuss this topic?
What prompted Jesus’ discussion of new versus old patches and wineskins? It was both His and the Pharisees’ passion to reach the “sinners” or backsliders of their day. These “sinners” were Jews whose relationship with God was lax and needed reviving. Jesus’ teachings matched His Father’s Torah, not the Pharisees’ teachings. His was a “new” take on the “old” Law.
