Bible Lesson 8
El Primer Milagro – The First Miracle
Here we witness Jesus’ first miracle, which is such an interesting choice. Why at a wedding? And why wine? At any rate, it’s a wonderful thing to be able to say about the character of our God: Jesus makes any party way better!
Personally, I wish I could have seen this interaction between Jesus and Mary. What was Jesus’ tone when he told his mom that the wine problem was none of his business? And what prompted Mary to tell the servants to do whatever Jesus instructed?
Then we see Jesus in the temple, and again he is breaking stereotypes. What a messy, chaotic scene this must have been! May we be equally zealous for the purity of God’s new temple, the Church!
