“And he saith unto them, Draw out now, and bear unto the governor of the feast. And they bare it.”
King James Version (KJV)
2:6 The purifying of the Jews - Who purified themselves by frequent washings particularly before eating.
2:9 The governor of the feast - The bridegroom generally procured some friend to order all things at the entertainment.
2:10 And saith - St. John barely relates the words he spoke, which does not imply his approving them. When they have well drunk - does not mean any more than toward the close of the entertainment.
Joh 2:8 Draw out now, and bear unto the governor of the feast. Augustine says: ``He that had made wine that day in those six water-pots does the same every year in the vines. For as what the servants put in the water-pots was changed into wine by the operation of the Lord, just so what the clouds pour forth is changed into wine by the operation of the same law.''
