Over the next 5 days, we'll explore each miracle and recommend resources to answer your questions as you discover how Jesus exceeds our needs through these miracles. Let's jump into one of the most well-known miracles and the first Miracle Jesus performed, the turning of water into wine. Rabbi Sobel jumps into the story in John 2, at the scene of a wedding in Cana. He unpacks the symbolism behind the first miracle being performed at a wedding, suggests additional Bible readings from John and Isaiah for added context. |

In John 2:4, Jesus addresses his mother as "Woman," which may seem unusual by today's standards. To dig deeper and understand the nuance of this exchange, commentaries are very useful tools. With Bible Gateway Plus, you can access premium resources such as the Zondervan Illustrated Bible Backgrounds Commentary of the New Testament and learn that, in the context of the time, this term was a respectful way of addressing someone, similar to our current day use of "ma'am." |
