Commentary on John 2:1
The 'third day' may foreshadow Christ's resurrection, John's first use of symbolic timing. Cana's wedding represents the joy of salvation, with Mary's presence suggesting her trust in Jesus despite no previous public miracles. This first sign reveals Christ's glory by transforming the old covenant (water in purification jars) into the new (abundant wine), superior in quality and quantity—a preview of grace replacing law.
