1 in Galilee, and the mother of Jesus was there.
2 Jesus and his disciples were also invited to the wedding.
3 When the wine ran short, the mother of Jesus said to him, "They have no wine."
4 (And) Jesus said to her, "Woman, how does your concern affect me? My hour has not yet come."
5 His mother said to the servers, "Do whatever he tells you."
6 Now there were six stone water jars there for Jewish ceremonial washings, each holding twenty to thirty gallons.
7 Jesus told them, "Fill the jars with water." So they filled them to the brim.
8 Then he told them, "Draw some out now and take it to the headwaiter." So they took it.
9 And when the headwaiter tasted the water that had become wine, without knowing where it came from (although the servers who had drawn the water knew), the headwaiter called the bridegroom
10 and said to him, "Everyone serves good wine first, and then when people have drunk freely, an inferior one; but you have kept the good wine until now."
11 Jesus did this as the beginning of his signs in Cana in Galilee and so revealed his glory, and his disciples began to believe in him.
12 After this, he and his mother, (his) brothers, and his disciples went down to Capernaum and stayed there only a few days.
13 Since the Passover of the Jews was near, Jesus went up to Jerusalem.
14 as well as the money-changers seated there.
15 He made a whip out of cords and drove them all out of the temple area, with the sheep and oxen, and spilled the coins of the money-changers and overturned their tables,
16 and to those who sold doves he said, "Take these out of here, and stop making my Father's house a marketplace."
17 His disciples recalled the words of scripture, "Zeal for your house will consume me."
18 At this the Jews answered and said to him, "What sign can you show us for doing this?"
19 Jesus answered and said to them, "Destroy this temple and in three days I will raise it up."
20 The Jews said, "This temple has been under construction for forty-six years, and you will raise it up in three days?"
21 But he was speaking about the temple of his body.
22 Therefore, when he was raised from the dead, his disciples remembered that he had said this, and they came to believe the scripture and the word Jesus had spoken.
23 While he was in Jerusalem for the feast of Passover, many began to believe in his name when they saw the signs he was doing.
24 But Jesus would not trust himself to them because he knew them all,
25 and did not need anyone to testify about human nature. He himself understood it well.

Luke 2:19: "But Mary kept all these things and reflected in her heart." This verse talks about Mary keeping in her heart the words and events that surrounded the birth of Jesus. Similarly, the events of Chapter 2 of the Gospel of John show the importance of reflecting on the teachings and miracles of Jesus.
Matthew 21:12: "And Jesus entered the temple of God, expelled all who sold and bought there, knocked down the tables of the money changers and the chairs of those who sold doves." This verse describes a scene similar to what occurs in John 2, in which Jesus expels the temple traders in Jerusalem. This shows the importance that Jesus gave to the right worship to God and the holiness of the temple.
Mark 10:34: "And they shall mock him, they will spit on him, shag him and kill him; but after three days he will rise." In this verse, Jesus talks about his death and resurrection, an important theme that is addressed in John 2 when Jesus tells the disciples that if the temple is destroyed, he will rebuild him in three days.
John 1:14: "And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we have seen his glory, glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth." This verse describes the incarnation of Jesus, an important theme in John's chapter 2, for his first public miracle demonstrates his divine power.
Hebrews 4:15: "For we do not have a high priest who cannot pity our weaknesses, he was tempted in all things to our likeness, but without sin." This verse talks about how Jesus experienced the same temptations and weaknesses as human beings, but remained without sin. This is relevant to the episode where Jesus turns water into wine, showing that he can provide abundance without surrendering to the excesses and temptations of life.
