There was to be a marriage in Cana of Galilee. The parties were relatives of Joseph and Mary. Christ knew of this family gathering, and that many influential persons would be brought together there, so, in company with his newly-made disciples, he made his way to Cana. As soon as it was known that Jesus had come to the place, a special invitation was sent to him and his friends. This was what he had purposed, and so he graced the feast with his presence. {2SP 99.1}

Der skulle være bryllup i Kana i Galilæa. De, som holdt dette bryllup, var slægtninge af Josef og Maria. Jesus vidste, at familien skulle samles, og at mange personer med stor indflydelse ville forsamles med dem. Derfor drog han til Kana med sine nye disciple. Så sandt som det rygtedes, at Jesus var kommet til staden, sendte de en særskilt indbydelse til ham og hans venner. Dette var netop, hvad Jesus ønskede, og han prydede festen med sin nærværelse.
