All four gospels include an account of Jesus’ disruption at the temple. The synoptic gospels are similar, with some variants, and place the incident near the end of the gospel when Jesus enters Jerusalem for Passover the week he was crucified. In John, the incident occurs toward the beginning of the gospel and is distinctively … Continue reading “John 2:13-22 Commentary by Marilyn Salmon”

The first thing to notice when interpreting and preaching the temple incident in the Gospel of John is its different location compared to the Synoptic Gospels. Whereas in Matthew, Mark, and Luke the temple scene follows Jesus’ entry into Jerusalem, in John the episode is moved to immediately after Jesus’ first sign, the wedding at … Continue reading “John 2:13-22 Commentary by Karoline Lewis”

El relato se ubica luego de la historia de Felipe y Natanael, en torno a un diálogo sobre “ese nazareno” (“¿De Nazaret puede salir algo bueno?” Jn 1:46), que culmina afirmando que verían “el cielo abierto y a los ángeles de Dios subiendo y bajando sobre el Hijo del hombre” (Jn 1:51). Nuevamente, un contexto … Continue reading “San Juan 2:1-11 Comentario por Nicolás Panotto”

En el Comienzo hubo Fiesta El Evangelio de Juan comienza con el prólogo sobre la Palabra hecha carne.  Sigue con el encuentro con Juan el Bautista, “la voz de uno que clama en el desierto” (1:23). Describe el descenso del Espíritu “como paloma” (1:32) en el bautismo de Jesús, el “Cordero de Dios” (1:29 y … Continue reading “San Juan 2:1-11 Comentario por Nancy Elizabeth Bedford”

The structure of John 2:1-11 is typical of a miracle story: the setting is established (verses 1-2), a need arises (verses 3-5), a miracle addresses that need (verses 6-8), and there is a response to that miracle (verses 9-11). The changing of water to wine is Jesus’ first public act in John, the inaugural “sign” … Continue reading “John 2:1-11 Commentary by Gilberto Ruiz”

John begins his Gospel with the famous prologue, the appearance of the Baptist, and the calling of Jesus’ first disciples. His baptism is not actually related by the evangelist, but rather told in third person by the Baptist. The calling of the first disciples is narrated and in much more detail. The miracle at Cana … Continue reading “John 2:1-11 Commentary by Roy Harrisville”

The Wedding at Cana is unique to the Fourth Gospel and is the first of Jesus’ seven signs in the narrative. It presents an interesting contrast to next week’s text from Luke. Both stories narrate the first acts of Jesus’ public ministry, which provide important clues to who Jesus is for the respective author. For … Continue reading “John 2:1-11 Commentary by Karoline Lewis”

Even though Jesus arrived at a wedding with a funereal face, he immediately caught the festive mood! Jesus — following the steps of his cousin John the Baptizer, who de-centralized the temple to the Jordan River — in this story does the same with the wedding at Cana of Galilee. For Jesus, like for Moses … Continue reading “John 2:1-11 Commentary by Eliseo Pérez-Álvarez”

El tiempo y la distancia nos ayudan a ver más claramente. El estar ya en el segundo domingo después de epifanía nos ofrece suficiente distancia para reflexionar con más detalle sobre la importancia de lo que celebramos durante la navidad. El regalo que recibimos y celebramos durante la  navidad incluye muchas cosas, el amor de … Continue reading “San Juan 1:43-51 Comentario por Doug Avilesbernal”
