(one of many entries in my own journal I have been meaning to write on lol)<br><br>The wedding banquet lasted for days and days... they knew how to PARTY! And that is why we find in the scripture where Jesus performs his first miracle of turning water into wine.. because they had ran out from days of having this wedding party and why the father of the bride says in astonishment to them that they saved the best wine for last. In Jewish custom if you ran out of wine for this party it was so serious that it could even be grounds for nullification of the marriage contract. This is why it was not such a trivial thing Jesus had done and maybe why his mother had insisted he come forth and do it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2941371995600376751.post-40667828063517428042005-04-28T11:59:00.000-05:002005-04-28T11:59:00.000-05:00To Mary,Oooooohhhh!
