Miracle at Cana
1 John 2:1 On the third day there was a wedding in Cana of Galilee, and the mother of Jesus was there;
2 John 2:2 and both Jesus and His disciples were invited to the wedding.
3 John 2:3 When the wine ran out, the mother of Jesus *said to Him, “They have no wine.”
4 John 2:4 And Jesus *said to her, “Woman, what does that have to do with us? My hour has not yet come.”
5 John 2:5 His mother *said to the servants, “Whatever He says to you, do it.”
6 John 2:6 Now there were six stone waterpots set there for the Jewish custom of purification, containing twenty or thirty gallons each.
7 John 2:7 Jesus *said to them, “Fill the waterpots with water.” So they filled them up to the brim.
8 John 2:8 And He *said to them, “Draw some out now and take it to the headwaiter.” So they took it to him.
9 John 2:9 When the headwaiter tasted the water which had become wine, and did not know where it came from (but the servants who had drawn the water knew), the headwaiter *called the bridegroom,
10 John 2:10 and *said to him, “Every man serves the good wine first, and when the people have drunk freely, then he serves the poorer wine; but you have kept the good wine until now.”
11 John 2:11 This beginning of His signs Jesus did in Cana of Galilee, and manifested His glory, and His disciples believed in Him.
12 John 2:12 After this He went down to Capernaum, He and His mother and His brothers and His disciples; and they stayed there a few days.
First Passover--Cleansing the Temple
13 John 2:13 The Passover of the Jews was near, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.
14 John 2:14 And He found in the temple those who were selling oxen and sheep and doves, and the money changers seated at their tables.
15 John 2:15 And He made a scourge of cords, and drove them all out of the temple, with the sheep and the oxen; and He poured out the coins of the money changers and overturned their tables;
16 John 2:16 and to those who were selling the doves He said, “Take these things away; stop making My Father’s house a place of business.”
17 John 2:17 His disciples remembered that it was written, “ZEAL FOR YOUR HOUSE WILL CONSUME ME.”
18 John 2:18 The Jews then said to Him, “What sign do You show us as your authority for doing these things?”
19 John 2:19 Jesus answered them, “Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.”
20 John 2:20 The Jews then said, “It took forty-six years to build this temple, and will You raise it up in three days?”
21 John 2:21 But He was speaking of the temple of His body.
22 John 2:22 So when He was raised from the dead, His disciples remembered that He said this; and they believed the Scripture and the word which Jesus had spoken.
23 John 2:23 Now when He was in Jerusalem at the Passover, during the feast, many believed in His name, observing His signs which He was doing.
24 John 2:24 But Jesus, on His part, was not entrusting Himself to them, for He knew all men,
25 John 2:25 and because He did not need anyone to testify concerning man, for He Himself knew what was in man.
