unto him, They have no wine. 4. Jesus saith unto her, Woman, what have I to do with thee? mine hour is not yet 9. When the ruler of the feast had tasted the water that was made wine, and knew not whence it was: (but the servants which drew the water knew;) the governor of the feast called the bridegroom, 10. And saith unto him, Every man at the beginning doth set forth good wine; and when men have well drunk, then that which is worse: but thou hast kept the good wine until now. 11. This beginning of miracles did Jesus in Cana of Galilee, and manifested forth his glory; and his disciples believed on him.

ACTS OF THE APOSTLES, 2. 13. Others mocking said, These men are full of new wine.

EPISTLE TO THE ROMANS, 13. 13. Let us walk honestly, as in the day; not in rioting and drunkenness, not in chambering and wantonness, not in strife and envying.

14. 18. For he that in these things serveth Christ is acceptable to God, and approved of men. 19. Let us therefore follow after the things which make for peace, and things wherewith one may edify another. 20. For meat destroy not the work of God. All things indeed are pure; but it is evil for that man who eateth with offence.

FIRST EPISTLE TO THE CORINTHIANS, 5. 6. Your glorying is not good. Know ye not that a little leaven leaveneth the whole lump? 7. Purge out therefore the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, as ye are unleavened. For even Christ our passover is sacrificed for us: 8. Therefore let us keep the feast, not with old leaven, neither with the leaven of malice and wickedness; but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.

6. 12. All things are lawful unto me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the power of any.

8. 13. Wherefore, if meat make my brother to offend, I will eat no flesh while the world standeth, lest I make my brother to offend.

no wine. Jesus saith to her, O woman, what (object in common) is there between me and thee? mine hour is not yet come. When the president tasted the water that was made wine, and knew not whence it was obtained (but the servants who had drawn the water knew), the president called the bridegroom, and said to him, Every man places first (before his guests) the choice wine; and when they are well-filled, then the inferior kind; but thou hast kept back the choice wine until now. This beginning of miracles Jesus did in Cana of Galilee; and he displayed his glory: and his disciples put faith in him.

But others jeeringly said, that they were filled with sweet-wine.

Let us walk becomingly, as in the day; not in revelries and drinkings, not in chambering and wantonness, not in strife and envying.

For he that in this matter serveth Christ is well-pleasing to God and approves himself to men. Let us therefore pursue the things which make for peace, and the things by which we may build up one another. Do not demolish the work of God for the sake of meat. Everything, indeed, is pure; but it is evil to that man whose eating it makes it a cause of stumbling.

Your self-glorifying is not good. Know ye not that a little leaven fermenteth the whole lump? Purge out therefore the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, as ye are unfermented. For even Christ our paschal-lamb is sacrificed. Therefore let us keep the feast, not with old leaven, neither with the leaven of malice and wickedness; but with the unfermented-things of sincerity and truth.

All things are possible to me, but all things are not of advantage: all things are possible to me, but I will not allow myself to be overruled by anything.

Wherefore, if meat cause my brother to transgress, I will eat no flesh for ever, in order that I may not cause my brother to transgress.
