Concise Bible Dictionary
:
There are
six
Hebrew
words translated “bottle” in the
Old
Testament
. Among the descendants of
Judah
there were some described as “potters” (
1 Chron. 4:23
23
These were the potters, and those that dwelt among plants and hedges: there they dwelt with the king for his work. (1 Chronicles 4:23)
); and from the relics found in the tombs of
Egypt
it is evident that bottles were very early made of earthenware; and small ones of
glass
; though then, as now in the
East
, especially for larger vessels and for those to be carried about, skins were used (
Josh. 9:4, 13
4
They did work wilily, and went and made as if they had been ambassadors, and took old sacks upon their asses, and wine bottles, old, and rent, and bound up; (Joshua 9:4)
13
And these bottles of wine, which we filled, were new; and, behold, they be rent: and these our garments and our shoes are become old by reason of the very long journey. (Joshua 9:13)
). They are made of goats’ skins: the
head
, the legs and the tail are cut off, and the body drawn out. In the
New
Testament
the word
is ἀσκός, and signifies a “wineskin,” or “skin-bag.” Hence new
wine
must be
put
into new skins, which are more or less elastic (
Matt. 9:17
17
Neither do men put new wine into old bottles: else the bottles break, and the wine runneth out, and the bottles perish: but they put new wine into new bottles, and both are preserved. (Matthew 9:17)
;
Mark 2:22
22
And no man putteth new wine into old bottles: else the new wine doth burst the bottles, and the wine is spilled, and the bottles will be marred: but new wine must be put into new bottles. (Mark 2:22)
;
Luke 5:37-38
37
And no man putteth new wine into old bottles; else the new wine will burst the bottles, and be spilled, and the bottles shall perish.
38
But new wine must be put into new bottles; and both are preserved. (Luke 5:37‑38)
). The
Lord
was
teaching
that the new principles of the
kingdom
would not suit the old forms of Judaism: everything must be new.
