And Jesus said unto them, Can the children of the bridechamber fast, while the bridegroom is with them? as long as they have the bridegroom with them, they cannot fast.
Jesús les respondió: '¿Acaso pueden ayunar los invitados de la boda mientras el novio está con ellos? Mientras el novio esté presente, no pueden ayunar.'
Jesús enseñó que no era tiempo de ayunar mientras él estaba presente con sus discípulos.
📚 Contexto Histórico
In the first century, Jewish people commonly fasted as a sign of repentance and mourning, which was a key part of their religious practices, especially among groups like the Pharisees. Jesus was responding to critics who questioned why his disciples did not fast like John the Baptist's followers or the Pharisees, using a wedding analogy to emphasize that his presence brought joy and celebration. This metaphor reflected the cultural importance of weddings in Jewish society, where feasting and rejoicing were central rather than fasting.
