Mary came to him for help when the wedding party was out of wine and he plainly said that his hour had not come (meaning his time to reveal himself to Israel). Yet he turned water into wine in such a fashion as to answer his mother\u2019s request and still conceal himself to the guests. He also purged the temple of the moneychangers and their livestock that they were using to gouge the people coming for Passover. He turned their tables over and drove them all out with scourge made of small cords. The chapter ends with many in Jerusalem believing in his name, yet he did not commit himself to them because their faith was based on miracles instead of the man.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":1428,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[26],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2369","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-gospel-of-john"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mbcmuncie.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2369","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mbcmuncie.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mbcmuncie.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mbcmuncie.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mbcmuncie.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=2369"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"https:\/\/mbcmuncie.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2369\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2386,"href":"https:\/\/mbcmuncie.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2369\/revisions\/2386"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mbcmuncie.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/1428"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mbcmuncie.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=2369"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mbcmuncie.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=2369"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mbcmuncie.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=2369"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
