Matthew 9:17

* The two F.O.G. Bibles & Commentary below are currently a work in progress.

Neither do men pour new wine into old wineskins. If they do, the skins will burst, the wine will spill, and the wineskins will be ruined. Instead, they pour new wine into new wineskins, and both are preserved.”
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
Neither do people put new wine into old wineskins, or else the skins would burst, and the wine be spilled, and the skins ruined. No, they put new wine into fresh wineskins, and both are preserved.”

Strong's King James

The F.O.G*
[17] Neither do people pour new wine into old wineskins. The skins would burst, spilling the wine and ruining the skins. New wine needs new wineskins - then both are preserved."
The F.O.G Paraphrase
‘Nor do they put new wine into old skins, and if not—the skins burst, and the wine doth run out, and the skins are destroyed, but they put new wine into new skins, and both are preserved together.’
