Was reading John 2 about the wedding in Canaan this morning. Something that i had never though about before was that Mary was expecting Jesus to do a miracle (v3,5) even though he hadn't performed any yet (v11). Thought that was kind of strange. I mean granted she knew he was special and all that, but why was she expecting him to do something extra ordinary, if he'd never done something like that before?
It seems unlikely that she was expecting something "non-miraculous" (is that a word?), like just wanting Jesus to go out to the nearest store to buy some more wine, as he was merely a guest and not a partaker in the wedding.
Any one heard/read anything that might explain why she had this expectation?
