Wedding at Cana Icon |
“And the third day there was a
marriage in Cana of Galilee; and the mother of Jesus was there:And both Jesus
was called, and his disciples, to the marriage.And when they wanted wine, the
mother of Jesus saith unto him, They have no wine. Jesus saith unto her, Woman,
what have I to do with thee? mine hour is not yet come.His mother saith unto
the servants, Whatsoever he saith unto you, do it.And there were set there six
waterpots of stone, after the manner of the purifying of the Jews, containing
two or three firkins apiece. Jesus saith unto them, Fill the waterpots with
water. And they filled them up to the brim.And he saith unto them, Draw out
now, and bear unto the governor of the feast. And they bare it.When the ruler
of the feast had tasted the water that was made wine, and knew not whence it
was: (but the servants which drew the water knew;) the governor of the feast
called the bridegroom, And saith unto him, Every man at the beginning doth set
forth good wine; and when men have well drunk, then that which is worse: but
thou hast kept the good wine until now. This beginning of miracles did Jesus in
Cana of Galilee, and manifested forth his glory; and his disciples believed on
him” (John 2: 1-11).
