Exegesis

The object oinon neon {οἶνον νέον | oî-non né-on} ‘new wine’ precedes the locative phrase eis askous palaious {εἰς ἀσκοὺς παλαιούς | eis as-koùs pa-lai-ioús} ‘into old wineskins’, creating a thematic contrast.

In contextMark 2:22

And no one puts new wine into old wineskins ; otherwise, the wine will burst the wineskins and the wine is destroyed , and the skins are lost as well; but new wine belongs in new wineskins.
