Read in context

John 2:6–10 · Berean Standard Bible

6 Now six stone water jars had been set there for the Jewish rites of purification. Each could hold from twenty to thirty gallons.

7 Jesus told the servants, “Fill the jars with water.” So they filled them to the brim.

8 “Now draw some out,” He said, “and take it to the master of the banquet.” They did so,

9 and the master of the banquet tasted the water that had been turned into wine. He did not know where it was from, but the servants who had drawn the water knew. Then he called the bridegroom aside

10 and said, “Everyone serves the fine wine first, and then the cheap wine after the guests are drunk. But you have saved the fine wine until now!”
