Jesus goes to Cana
Jesus went back to the Galilean village of Cana, where he had turned water into wine. Further ahead, in the village of Capernaum, a government official had a son who was critically ill. When the official heard that Jesus had returned to Galilee from Judea, he went to meet him. He told Jesus that his son was about to die, and he begged Jesus to come to the village and heal him. Jesus told the people, “You folks aren’t going to believe in me until you see proof. You need miraculous signs.” The official told Jesus, “Please, sir, come with me before my little boy dies.”Long-distance healing
Jesus told the man, “Go back home. Your son will live.” The man believed him and went back home. On his way home, some of his servants rushed to meet him. They brought news that his son was alive and doing well. 5he man asked what time his son started to get better. They said, “Yesterday at about one o’clock in the afternoon. That’s when the fever broke.”Converted by the miracle
Immediately, the father realized that was the very hour Jesus told him, “Go back home. Your son will live.” The man became a believer because of this. So did everyone in his household. This was the second miraculous sign Jesus did. He did it after returning to Galilee from Judea.Jesus, in Cana, heals boy in Capernaum
