Original Fine Art Photography by my cousin Patti, edited in Topaz Studio. Texture, overlays and text added for an artistic enhancement...
Photographed in the Shrine of the Most Holy Redeemer Roman Catholic Church in Las Vegas Nevada.
When the wine ran out at the wedding in Cana, Mary turned to Jesus and said: "They have no more wine." "Dear woman, why do you involve me?" Jesus replied. "My time has not yet come." His mother said to the servants, "Do whatever he tells you." (John 2:3-5, NIV)
Nearby were six stone jars filled with water used for ceremonial washing. Jews cleansed their hands, cups, and vessels with water before meals. Each large pot held from 20 to 30 gallons.
Jesus told the servants to fill the jars with water. He ordered them to draw some out and take it to the master of the banquet, who was in charge of food and drink. The master was unaware of Jesus' turning the water in the jars into wine.
The steward was astounded. He took the bride and groom aside and complimented them. Most couples served the best wine first, he said, then brought out cheaper wine after the guests had too much to drink and would not notice. "You have saved the best till now," he told them (John 2:10, NIV).
Unlike some of his future spectacularly public miracles, what Jesus did by turning water into wine was done quietly, But by this miraculous sign, Jesus revealed his glory as the Son of God to his disciples. Amazed, they put their faith in him.
