Summary/Abstract: This article is a symbolical reading of the words of Jesus in Mark 2:18-22 in the light of the invitation to the path of synodality made by Pope Fran- cis in 2014. The article shows how the discovery of synodality is a finding of the newness of the Gospel (young wine) and that it takes flexibility of mind and openness to change (new wineskin). The article consists of three parts: literature presenting of pericope, an exegetical analysis and a discussion of the theological significance of the parable of the young wine and the old wineskins, and how the motifs relate to the “matter of synodality”.
