1:47. Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him and he saith of him: Behold an
Israelite indeed, in whom there is no guile.
1:48. Nathanael saith to him: Whence knowest thou me? Jesus answered and
said to him: Before that Philip called thee, when thou wast under the
fig tree, I saw thee.
1:49. Nathanael answered him and said: Rabbi: Thou art the Son of God.
Thou art the King of Israel.
1:50. Jesus answered and said to him: Because I said unto thee, I saw
thee under the fig tree, thou believest: greater things than these shalt
thou see.
1:51. And he saith to him: Amen, amen, I say to you, you shall see the
heaven opened and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the
Son of man.
John Chapter 2
Christ changes water into wine. He casts the sellers out of the temple.
2:1. And the third day, there was a marriage in Cana of Galilee: and the
mother of Jesus was there.
2:2. And Jesus also was invited, and his disciples, to the marriage.
2:3. And the wine failing, the mother of Jesus saith to him: They have
no wine.
2:4. And Jesus saith to her: Woman, what is that to me and to thee? My
hour is not yet come.
What is that to me, etc... These words of our Saviour, spoken to his
mother, have been understood by some commentators as harsh, they not
considering the next following verse: Whatsoever he shall say to you, do
ye, which plainly shows that his mother knew of the miracle that he was
to perform, and that it was at her request he wrought it; besides the
manner of speaking the words as to the tone, and the countenance shown
at the same time, which could only be known to those who were present,
or from what had followed: for words indicating anger in one tone of
voice, would be understood quite the reverse in another.
2:5. His mother saith to the waiters: Whatsoever he shall say to you, do
ye.
2:6. Now there were set there six waterpots of stone, according to the
manner of the purifying of the Jews, containing two or three measures
apiece.
2:7. Jesus saith to them: Fill the waterpots with water. And they filled
them up to the brim.
2:8. And Jesus saith to them: Draw out now and carry to the chief
steward of the feast. And they carried it.
2:9. And when the chief steward had tasted the water made wine and knew
not whence it was, but the waiters knew who had drawn the water: the
chief steward calleth the bridegroom,
2:10. And saith to him: Every man at first setteth forth good wine, and
when men have well drunk, then that which is worse. But thou hast kept
the good wine until now.
2:11. This beginning of miracles did Jesus in Cana of Galilee and
manifested his glory. And his disciples believed in him.
2:12. After this, he went down to Capharnaum, he and his mother and his
brethren and his disciples: and they remained there not many days.
2:13. And the pasch of the Jews was at hand: and Jesus went up to
Jerusalem.
2:14. And he found in the temple them that sold oxen and sheep and
doves, and the changers of money sitting.
2:15. And when he had made, as it were, a scourge of little cords, he
drove them all out of the temple, the sheep also and the oxen: and the
money of the changers he poured out, and the tables he overthrew.
