Scripture:
36And he spake also a parable unto them; No man putteth a piece of a new garment upon an old; if otherwise, then both the new maketh a rent, and the piece that was taken out of the new agreeth not with the old.
37And no man putteth new wine into old bottles; else the new wine will burst the bottles, and be spilled, and the bottles shall perish.
38But new wine must be put into new bottles; and both are preserved.
39No man also having drunk old wine straightway desireth new: for he saith, The old is better.
OAP: I should really post the soaps verses on the blog... Maybe tomorrow.
T.S. Elliot mentions some old wine skins, they have been left on the ground empty. Exactly where they should be. During class when we were talking about it I couldn't remember the context for the old wine skins, something about bursting. Old wine skins are worse than useless, they not only can't hold anything, if they were to attempt to they would only ruin the new wine.
God, I don't know why I would try to come back to the old container. But I have a certain nostalgia for it, let me be comfortable with it cast to the ground, abandoned with no future use.
