Jesus First Miracle

We dive into the Gospel of John, looking at John 2:1-11, the wedding at Cana were we encounter Jesus’ first miracle — turning water into wine.
We think about the oft-overlooked elements of this passage — why Jesus speaks to Mary the way he does, why he says his “time has not yet come” and yet still performs the miracle, and why his firs miracle seems so frivilous… why wine, and not a healing, raising the dead, or deliviering someone from the demonic, for example?
We think about the prophetic significance of this act, and the words of the master of the feast “Everyone serves the good wine first… But you have kept the good wine until now.”
