… each holding from 20 to 30 gallons. And Jesus said to the servants, fill the jars with water. And so they filled them to the brim. Verse 8. And he told them, now draw some out and take it to the master of the banquet. So they did. And the master of the banquet tasted the water that had been turned into wine.

And when the master of the feast had tasted the water that was made wine, and did not know where it came from, but the servants who had drawn the water knew, the master of the feast called the bridegroom. And he said to him, Every man at the beginning sets out the good wine, and when the guests have well drunk than the inferior, but you have kept the good wine until now. This beginning of signs Jesus did in Cana of Galilee, and manifested His glory, and His disciples believed in Him. He who has ears to hear the Word of God, let them hear. Let us pray.
