John 2:10-12
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
10 and said to him, “Everyone serves good wine first, and then when people have drunk freely, an inferior one; but you have kept the good wine until now.” 11 Jesus did this as the beginning of his signs[a] in Cana in Galilee and so revealed his glory, and his disciples began to believe in him.(A)
12 [b]After this, he and his mother, [his] brothers, and his disciples went down to Capernaum and stayed there only a few days.[c]

- 2:11 The beginning of his signs: the first of seven (see Introduction).
- 2:12–3:21 The next three episodes take place in Jerusalem. Only the first is paralleled in the synoptic gospels.
- 2:12 This transitional verse may be a harmonization with the synoptic tradition in Lk 4:31 and Mt 4:13. There are many textual variants. John depicts no extended ministry in Capernaum as do the synoptics.
