# new wine

"grape juice." This refers to wine that has not yet fermented.

# wineskins
|

|
These were bags made out of animal skins. They could also be called "wine bags" or "bags made of skin."

|
|
# the new wine would burst the skins
|
|
|
|
When the new wine ferments and expands, it breaks the old skins because they can no longer stretch out. Jesus' audience would have understood the information about the wine's fermenting and expanding. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-explicit]])

# the wine would be spilled

# drinking old wine ... wants the new
|
|
|
|
This metaphor contrasts the old teaching of the religious leaders against the new teaching of Jesus. The point is that people who are used to the old teaching are not willing to listen to the new things that Jesus is teaching. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor]])

# old wine
