In Matthew 9, Jesus says “No one sews a patch of unshrunk cloth on an old garment, for the patch will pull away from the garment, making the tear worse. Neither do people pour new wine into old wineskins. If they do, the skins will burst; the wine will run out and the wineskins will be ruined. No, they pour new wine into new wineskins, and both are preserved.” This verse has served as the main inspiration behind Swanson's Wineskin Journals. The Wineskin Journal measures 5.8 x 8.3 inches in size.
