"Come and see." 47 Jesus saw Nathanael coming toward him, and said of
him, "Behold, an Israelite indeed, in whom is no deceit!" 48 Nathanael
said to him, "How do you know me?" Jesus answered him, "Before Philip
called you, when you were under the fig tree, I saw you." 49 Nathanael
answered him, "Rabbi, you are the Son of God! You are the King of
Israel!" 50 Jesus answered him, "Because I said to you, I saw you under
the fig tree, do you believe? You shall see greater things than these." 51
And he said to him, "Truly, truly, I say to you, you shall see heaven open,
and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of Man."

1 On the third day there was a wedding at Cana in Galilee, and
the mother of Jesus was there. 2 And Jesus and his disciples had also
been invited to the wedding. 3 When the wine was gone, the mother of
Jesus said to him, "They have no wine." 4 Jesus said to her, "Woman,
what have you to do with me? My hour has not yet come." 5 His mother
said to the servants, "Do whatever he tells you." 6 Now six stone jars
were standing there, according to the manner for purification of the Jews,
each holding twenty or thirty gallons. 7 Jesus said to them, "Fill the jars
with water." And they filled them up to the brim. 8 He said to them, "Now
draw some out, and take it to the master of the feast." So they took it. 9
When the master of the feast had tasted the water that was made wine, and
did not know where it had come from (though the servants who had drawn
the water knew), the master of the feast called the bridegroom. 10 And he
said to him, "Every man sets out the good wine first; and when the guests
have drunk freely, then the poor wine; but you have kept the good wine
until now." 11 This, the first of his signs, Jesus did at Cana in Galilee,
and manifested his glory; and his disciples believed in him.
12 After this he went down to Capernaum, with his mother and
his brothers and his disciples; and there they stayed for a few days.
13 The Passover of the Jews was at hand, and Jesus went up to
Jerusalem. 14 In the temple he found those who were selling oxen and
sheep and doves, and the money-changers at their business. 15 And he
made a whip of cords, and drove them all, with the sheep and oxen, out of
the temple; and he poured out the coins of the money-changers and
overturned their tables. 16 And he said to those who sold doves, "Take
these things away! You shall not make my Father's house a house of
merchandise!" 17 His disciples remembered that it was written, "Zeal for
your house will consume me." 18 Then the Jews said to him, "What sign
do you show to us, since you do this?" 19 Jesus answered them, "Destroy
this temple, and in three days I will raise it up." 20 The Jews then said, "It
has taken forty-six years to build this temple, and will you raise it up in
three days?" 21 But he was speaking of the temple of his body. 22 When
