Episode: John 2:1-25: Jesus' Love for His Mother and Zeal for His Father
Description: Jesus’ ministry begins with two powerful acts: turning water into wine at the wedding in Cana and cleansing the temple in Jerusalem. At Cana, Jesus shows love and respect for His mother by answering her request, revealing His divine power in an intimate setting. Jesus shows that joy and celebration are not frivolous, but the proper response to God’s gifts in creation. Then, in the temple, His zeal for His Father’s house drives Him to confront corruption. Jesus demonstrates his righteous judgment as he turns over tables and whips the moneychangers out of the temple.
