JOHN—NOTE ON John 2:11 signs. Miracles (see vv. John 2:6; John 4:47; John 6:13; John 9:1) that point to Jesus’ identity as Messiah and Son of God and lead unbelievers to faith. The statement that this was the first of his signs indicates that Jesus did not do any miracles during his childhood or early adulthood but lived as an ordinary man with his divine identity hidden. and manifested his glory. This miracle showed the glory of Jesus as the sovereign Creator and ruler of the universe and also as the merciful Provider for his people’s needs (compare John 1:14).
