 {The sons of the bridechamber} (hoi huioi tou numph(936e)os).
Not merely the groomsmen, but the guests also, the paranymphs
(paranumphoi of the old Greek). Jesus here adopts the Baptist's
own metaphor ( Joh 3:29 ), changing the friend of the bridegroom
(ho philos tou numphiou) to sons of the bridechamber. Jesus
identifies himself with the bridegroom of the O.T. ( Ho 2:21 ),
God in his covenant relation with Israel (Swete). Mourning does
not suit the wedding feast. Mark, Matthew, and Luke all give the
three parables (bridegroom, unfulled cloth, new wineskins)
illustrating and defending the conduct of Jesus in feasting with
Levi on a Jewish fast-day.  Lu 5:36  calls these parables. Jesus
here seems iconoclastic to the ecclesiastics and revolutionary in
emphasis on the spiritual instead of the ritualistic and
ceremonial.
