The Saviour ate with sinners, he spoke to them the words of life, and many accepted him as their Redeemer. The feast of Christ was holy; but the fasting Pharisees will have their portion with the hypocrites and unbelievers, when Christ shall come in his glory, and those whom they scorned will be gathered into his kingdom. {2SP 193.1}

Vor frelser spiste med syndere; han talte livets ord til dem, og mange antog ham som sin forløser. Kristi gæstebud var helligt; men farisæerne, der fastede så ofte, vil få sin del med hyklere og vantro, når Kristus kommer i sin herlighed, og de mennesker, som de foragtede, skal indgå i hans rige.
