"What Jesus did here in Cana of Galilee was the first of the signs through which he revealed his glory; and his disciples believed in him." John 2:11 NIV
Jesus' first miracle is rich with symbolism; He turns ceremonial water used for washing into something better - wine, wine that was to be used to celebrate a wedding. Later in His ministry, during the "Last Supper" Jesus offers a cup of wine to His disciples and states,"This is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many." The Jewish people temporarily purified themselves using the ceremonial water, but the blood of Jesus is far stronger and washes away our sin forever. This is indeed something to celebrate.
