1 Yahusha was marrying Miriam/Mary
of Bethany in Cana of Galilee on the Third Day of the week (Physical to
Spiritual Parallel of when the Bearer of Living Water and Manna
Mikveh’s the Earth; on the Third Day/Kingdom Reign, the Age of AQUARIUS,
after the Age of PISCES/2 Prophetic Days when he paid the dowry for
his Bride).
Miriam, the mother of Yahusha, was there in charge of the wedding activities;
|
1 On the third day
a wedding took place at Cana in Galilee. Jesus’ mother was there,
|
2 with Yahusha and the Disciples
he invited to the wedding.
|
2 and Jesus and
his disciples had also been invited to the wedding.
|
3 Miriam, the mother of the Groom
(Yahusha),
noticed they were deficient of wine and went to the Groom and informed him so
he could bring out more wine (In Hebrew weddings, it is the
responsibility of the Groom to provide the wine; and it is the responsibility
of the Mother of the Groom to watch over the wine supply because the Groom
was busy with the wedding activities).
|
3 When the wine
was gone, Jesus’ mother said to him, “They have no more wine.”
|
4 Yahusha said: what can I do (g1473 – ‘what
have I to do’)
for you (g4771 ‘to you’)? Mother (g3384), show to me (g1473 – ‘to
me’)
which (g5101 ‘what, which’) wine skins; and also (g2532 – ‘also’) how many so I can refill them?
I have limited time (g5610 –
‘limited time’),
I (g1473 – ‘I’) do not have to be present (g2240 – ‘be
present’)
in the wedding activities just yet.
|
4 “Woman, why do
you involve me?”
Jesus replied. “My
hour has not yet come.”
|
5 His mother said to the servants
of the wedding; do whatever my son, the Groom, says to do.
|
5 His mother said
to the servants, “Do whatever he tells you.”
|
6 Yahusha noticed there were six
water pots of stone standing there used for ceremonial purification of the
Yahudaim, each holding twenty to thirty gallons.
|
6 Nearby stood six
stone water jars, the kind used by the Jews for ceremonial washing, each
holding from twenty to thirty gallons.
|
7 Yahusha said to them: Fill the
water pots with Living (clean) Water. So, they filled them up
to the brim.
|
7 Jesus said to
the servants, “Fill
the jars with water; so they filled them to the brim.
|
8 Then he said to them: Now draw
some out and take it to my mother who is in charge of the wedding feast; so
they did as he asked.
|
8 Then he told
them, “Now
draw some out and take it to the master of the banquet.” They did so,
|
9 When the one in charge of the
wedding feast (Miriam the mother of the Groom) had tasted the water that was
made wine (only the servants knew what Yahusha had done, Miriam did
not know where it came from this was Yahusha’s First miracle), the one in charge of the
wedding feast (Miriam)
called the Yahusha the Bridegroom.
|
9 and the master
of the banquet tasted the water that had been turned into wine. He did not
realize where it had come from, though the servants who had drawn the water
knew. Then he called the bridegroom aside
|
10 And said to him; Every man sets
out the choicest wine at the beginning; then, when the guests have had plenty
to drink, they set out the lesser quality wine. But you have reserved the
choicest wine until now.
|
10 and said,
“Everyone brings out the choice wine first and then the cheaper wine after
the guests have had too much to drink; but you have saved the best till now.”
|
11 This act at Cana of Galilee was
only the beginning of his Acts of Power, and word spread and
Yahusha became well known; this strengthened his Disciple’s belief in
Yahusha; convincing them to proclaim Yahusha was The Messiah (One foretold
in The Heavenly Scroll).
|
11 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.
|
12 Yahusha went down to Capernaum
along with his mother (Miriam), his brothers, and his
Disciples; but they did not remain and stayed only a couple of days.
|
12 After this he
went down to Capernaum with his mother and brothers and his disciples. There
they stayed for a few days.
|
13 Now Yahusha went up to Yerushalayim/Jerusalem
for Passover,
|
13 When it was
almost time for the Jewish Passover, Jesus went up to Jerusalem.
|
14 And found those who were selling
the sacrificial animals (oxen, sheep, and turtledoves) for a profit, along with others
sitting and changing money for the offerings at a profit in the sacred
precincts of The Temple.
|
14 In the temple
courts he found people selling cattle, sheep and doves, and others sitting at
tables exchanging money.
|
15 Yahusha made had made a whip of
small cords, then drove them all out of The Temple Outer Courts along with
the sheep and oxen and overturned the tables where the money was being
exchanged for profit;
|
15 So he made a
whip out of cords, and drove all from the temple courts, both sheep and
cattle; he scattered the coins of the money changers and overturned their
tables.
|
16 And said to those who sold
turtledoves: Take these things away! Do not make my Father's House a house of
merchandise!
|
16 To those who
sold doves he said, “Get these out of here! Stop turning my Father’s
house into a market!”
|
17 Then his Disciples remembered
that it was Written: The zeal for Your House has eaten me up (Psalm 69:9).
|
17 His disciples
remembered that it is written: “Zeal for your house will consume me.”
|
18 Then the Yahudaim confronted
Yahusha, and said to him; What sign can you show us that you have authority
to do these things?
|
18 The Jews then
responded to him, “What sign can you show us to prove your authority to do
all this?”
|
19 Yahusha answered, and said to
them: Destroy this Temple, and in three days it will be raised up (The Sign of
Yahnah/Jonah Matthew 12:38-45).
|
19 Jesus answered
them, “Destroy
this temple, and I will raise it again in three days.”
|
20 The Yahudaim then said; It took
forty-six years to build this Temple, and you will raise it up in three days?
|
20 They replied,
“It has taken forty-six years to build this temple, and you are going to
raise it in three days?”
|
21 But Yahusha was speaking of The
Temple of his Body.
|
21 But the temple
he had spoken of was his body.
|
22 Now when Yahusha was raised from
the dead (as the Chief Cornerstone of the Final Kingdom Temple of
Yahuah Ephesians 2:20),
his Disciples remembered that he had said this to the Yahudaim; and they
believed the Scripture (in Psalm 69:9) was a prophecy speaking of
Yahusha.
|
22 After he was
raised from the dead, his disciples recalled what he had said. Then they
believed the scripture and the words that Jesus had spoken.
|
23 When Yahusha was in Yerushalayim/Jerusalem
during The Passover Feast of Unleavened Bread many believed and entered into
the covenant that bears his Name (The Yahushaic Covenant); trusted him because of his
power, when they saw the Acts of Power that he performed.
|
23 Now while he was
in Jerusalem at the Passover Festival, many people saw the signs he was
performing and believed in his name.
|
24 However, Yahusha did not himself
trust in Acts of Power because he knew the heart of man (that only a
wicked and adulterous generation requires such things as “proof” Matthew
16:4),
|
24 But Jesus would
not entrust himself to them, for he knew all people.
|
25 Yahusha did not need man's
testimony about man, for he knew what was in the heart of man (he only
needed The Word of Yahuah’s Testimony in The Heavenly Scroll which is greater
than man’s testimony on Earth… 1 John 5:9).
|
25 He did not need
any testimony about mankind, for he knew what was in each
