Overview

The story of the Wedding at Cana, as articulated by Sam Shamoun, reveals intricate details about the relationship between Jesus and his mother, Mary. It presents an opportunity to explore the significance of Mary's faith in Jesus's miraculous abilities. Shamoun passionately argues against some interpretations that view Jesus's response to Mary as a rebuke, instead presenting it as an affirmation of Mary's insightful understanding and her role in propelling Jesus's public ministry.

By examining the cultural and prophetic layers within this biblical account, Shamoun highlights how the miracle signifies a transition from the old covenant represented by Judaism's ritual purity laws to the new life offered in Christ. The transformation of water into wine is not just a miracle of compassion but a profound signifier of Jesus's forthcoming sacrifice and resurrection, especially occurring 'on the third day', symbolizing both completion and renewal.

The HIDDEN meaning behind the Wedding at Cana in the Bible | Sam Shamoun Transcription

• 00:00 - 00:30 now let's go to John 2 the one that they misuse against you even though I've done 50 million sessions but I'll do it for you anyway John Chapter 2 this is the one they love to misquote I used to do it too when I was a Die Hard anti- Catholic like Jamal Muhammad white now when you go to John two read verses one to three yeah John 2 verses 1 to3 on the third day there was a wedding in Kaa in Cana of Galilee and the mother of Jesus was there now both Jesus and his
• 00:30 - 01:00 disciples were invited to the wedding and when they ran out of wine the mother of Jesus said to him they have no wine wait she didn't even ask son can you make some wine they have no wine now number one what does that tell you guys guys you want to go a little in depth on this right Mary goes to Jesus they have no wine this shows you Mary's faith in her son why
• 01:00 - 01:30 why did she say they have no wine what is she assuming and expecting that her son is the Son of God and he has the power to do Miracles and so she has enough faith and trust in her son that he can do the miracle of providing wine so that the bridegroom and the bride won't be embarrassed and ashamed in front of their guests in other words people don't realize this shows Mary's faith in her son
• 01:30 - 02:00 confidence in her son and her compassion son you are a god of compassion and a miracle workking God don't allow them to be humiliated because they ran out of wine and the guest will complain and the bridegroom and his bride will be ashamed do you see her heart and faith I never thought about that watch the status of our blessed mother if you remove the Protestant lenses and are not anti-catholic anti Orthodox okay watch
• 02:00 - 02:30 what does it tell you about the mother who goes to the son saying they have no line it shows number one she knows her son and has perfect faith in her son and knows her son is a miracle working God and knows her son is compassionate and loving and would not allow the bridegroom and his bride to be humiliated and ashamed and embarrassed because they ran out of wine and the guest would
• 02:30 - 03:00 complain see her Fai so she's not so she's not imposing some Authority on Jesus as some believe well even if they want to say that still she knows he's a good son and she knows his heart he's a compassionate Lord who doesn't want anyone to be ashamed and humiliated right yeah of course because why is she asking she's not asking something for selfish reasons she's not asking selfishly they ran out of wine which
• 03:00 - 03:30 means the guest will complain and the bridegroom and the bride will be embarrassed for failing to show hospitality and providing enough for the guests they would be embarrassed and left humiliated son do something for them you guys catch you listening before I move on so that shows her her compassion and love it shows us when I say her us her faith in her son she
• 03:30 - 04:00 knows who her son is even though the people still don't realize who the son is she knows who he is he's the son of God who can do Miracles and she knows his Compassionate Heart he won't allow them to be humiliated now here's where the Protestants butcher this text then they quote verse four read verse four this is the one I quoted and I butchered Jesus said to Heroman what does your concern have to do with me my hour not has not yet come
• 04:00 - 04:30 okay now Protestant stopped there and say see he rebuked her cuz she was a th okay now brother this is what happens when Protestants think they know the Bible number one if Jesus was rebuking her why did Mary know that Jesus was going to do what she said because now read verse five his mother said to the servants
• 04:30 - 05:00 that's it your Bible only stops there uh his mother said to the servants whatever he says to you do it wait I thought Jesus was rebuking her if he was she didn't get the memo because she still went ahead and told the servants do whatever he tells you look at her confidence in her son that she didn't take it as her son rebuking her she took it that her son was going to do what she asked
• 05:00 - 05:30 yeah that's the next verse right if was a rebuke Mary didn't get it she didn't get the Momo because she still went ahead and said do whatever he tells you and that's what Mary does she brings us to Christ and tells us do what my son tells you but if it's a rebuke how come she didn't take it as a rebuke if she was in sin how come she didn't see it as Sin and she real
• 05:30 - 06:00 realiz that her son is going to do the miracle for her and she had absolute confidence he's going to do it she goes on to say to the servants do what he tells you yep right we got it before I move on yeah we got it I mean so if we got it another thing if she was in sin and Jesus rebuking for sin are you telling me that Jesus went ahead and obeyed her anyway and honored her sinful
• 06:00 - 06:30 request so that Jesus is complicit in her sin because he does the miracle anyway right yep he does anyway so if she was in sin you're telling me that Jesus honored her sin and was complicit in her sin by doing what she asked he cannot you cannot that cannot be exactly you see when you are Protestant and you're blinded by Martin luer and John Calvin and you hate the ancient Church you will even slander
• 06:30 - 07:00 Jesus indirectly without realizing you just slandered the Lord because you're saying Jesus went ahead and did what was sinful because he went ahead and did what Mary requested which you're trying to tell you was something sinful and the Lord had to rebuke her damn you see the blasphemy what the heck have they been feeding me but I'm going to get it I'm going to make it even better notice he says woman what is this between you and
• 07:00 - 07:30 me my hour is not come the hour he's talking about is the hour where he begins his miraculous Ministry resulting in his death and Resurrection right he's telling her the time for me to do a miracle has not come so Mary is expecting Christ to do a miracle Christ is telling her it's not my time why because Jesus is here on God's timetable so it's a reminder to her though she is
• 07:30 - 08:00 his mother and he's her son he's still the Son of God and her Lord and he comes to do the father's will and he does it when the father wants him to do it right right yes because he saying my hour has not come what hour you're asking me to do a miracle I haven't received authorization to do so but now here's the glory of Mary you want to see how glorious she is did you know because of that the father and the son and spirit went ahead and sped up the hour in order
• 08:00 - 08:30 to do what Mary asked in other words it's not time for me to do the miracle but because of your intercession we're now going to hasten and speed up the hour instead of delaying it the hour begins now in order to honor your request so it was Mary's intercession that moved the Trinity to hasten the miracle to begin Jesus's public Ministry before the appointed time so why would
• 08:30 - 09:00 the father and the son and the spirit honor Mary's request for a miracle and why would they then hasten the hour and do the miracle bringing about the hour sooner than the appointed time if she was in sin so you're saying the father son Holy Spirit honored her sin now let me prove to you the father had to authorize the miracle you want me to prove that to you so when Jesus did the miracle the father did the miracle
• 09:00 - 09:30 and the Holy Spirit did the miracle are you ready yeah for the proof go to John John 59 this is what happens when you stop being a Protestant and you hate the Orthodox and the Catholic church and you think you're doing Jesus a favor by dishonoring the holy mother when you remove the lens and say holy spirit sanctify me correct my errors and sin and enable me to know the truth and love the truth then you see
• 09:30 - 10:00 clearly exactly Ortho Christos now let me now prove to you that when Jesus did the miracle the father did the miracle and the spirit did the miracle all three did the miracle to honor the Blessed Mother all three agreed to hasten the hour to make the hour arrive sooner than later in order to honor her here John 519 yep John 5:19 then Jesus answered and said to
• 10:00 - 10:30 them most assuredly I say to you the son can do nothing of himself but what he sees the father do for whatever he does the son also does in like manner so when the son did the miracle who else did the miracle the father now John same John John 8:28 29 John 828 29 guys I'm going to prove to you from John when Jesus did the miracle the father did it with Jesus
• 10:30 - 11:00 and the Holy Spirit so father son spirit all three of them together did the miracle for Mary the Blessed Mother here John 8 28:29 John 8: 28:29 then Jesus said to them when you lift up the son of man then you will know that I am he and that I do nothing of myself but as my father taught me I speak these things and he who sent me is
• 11:00 - 11:30 with me the father has not left me alone for I always do those things that please him so wait if Jesus always does what pleases the father and only does what the father tells him and only does what the father does so when Jesus did the miracle who was doing the miracle the father now go to John 14 7 to 11 14 7-1
• 11:30 - 12:00 yeah okay John 14 7-1 if you had known me you have you would have known my father also and from now on you will know him and have seen him Philip said to him Lord show us the father and it is sufficient for us Jesus said to him have I been with you so long and yet you have not known me Phillip he who has seen me has seen the father so
• 12:00 - 12:30 how can you say show us the father do you not believe that I am in the father and the father in me the words that I speak to you I do not speak on my own authority but the father who dwells in me does the workit who's doing the Miracles the father so when Jesus did the miracle turning water into wine the first of his miracles Jesus did it alone no who did it with him the father why is
• 12:30 - 13:00 the father agreeing to do what Mary said if Mary was in sin oh my God you so my God whose father Spirit Our God whom we love and worship we love you father we love you Lord Jesus we love your holy spirit so why is the father doing this miracle for Mary if Mary's in sin that cannot be because her request
• 13:00 - 13:30 was not sinful just mentioned that now was it the father and son what about the Holy Spirit was the Holy Spirit also doing the Miracles go to John 13233 now when you go to John 13233 did Jesus do the Miracles by himself or with the father and the Holy Spirit John 13233 yeah John 13 verse 32 and 33 and John bought witness saying I saw this spirit descending from heaven like
• 13:30 - 14:00 a dove and he remained upon him I did not know him but he who sent me to baptize with water said to me upon whom you see the spirit descending and remaining on him this is he who baptized with the holy spirit so the Holy Spirit was with Jesus in all his fullness yes was the father with Jesus in all his fullness working with Jesus yes so you're telling me when Jesus did
• 14:00 - 14:30 the miracle the father and spirit did the miracle with Jesus yes so you're telling me now Father and Son Holy Spirit are agreeing to do what Mary asked to honor her and hasten the miraculous Ministry of Jesus to begin before the appointed time and yet she was in sin so they're honoring her sin no they're not honoring her sin her request was not sinful so then why do Protestants misquote this passage I don't know but now to prove to you it
• 14:30 - 15:00 was Mary's intercession that sped up and began the hour read John 21 after he turn water into wine look what it says John 21 John 2 11 verse 11 oh my God stop saying oh my god dude you know that's taking his name in vain I love you bro I know you mean well John 21 this this beginning of signs Jesus Jus did in Cana of Galilee and manifested
• 15:00 - 15:30 His glory and his disciples believed in him wait so who caused the first of Jesus miracles to take place Mary who caused it Mary the Blessed why would God honor Mary by having J Jesus do the first of his miracles beginning his public Ministry of Miracles and signs if she wasn't sin because she wasn't h
• 15:30 - 16:00 interesting father son Holy Spirit do the Miracles before the hour speeding up the hour to honor her and honor her request and yet Protestants are telling me she's in sin Jesus says to a woman what is that between you and me and they use that to show that Jesus rebuked her she's in sin and yet the next verse Mary doesn't take it as being rebuked doesn't take it as Jesus rebuking her but then with full confidence says whatever he tells you do it so she has no doubt that just the son is going to do the
• 16:00 - 16:30 miracle right yep now watch what's going to happen because I'm going to leave this with be the last question but I want to unpack it since you brought it up now watch what happened Mary and coming to Jesus guys listen to this guys understand Mary's Faith John 2 is an illustration of Mary's faith when they ran out of wine that would have been a huge embarrassment to the bridegroom and the bride to run out of water meant you were a bad host and you would have been
• 16:30 - 17:00 disgraced this shows Mary's love and compassion are you catching it the few things said about Mary shows how great she is in the eyes of God for those who are illuminated by the Holy Spirit you guys catching it it shows her love and compassion number two it shows her trust in her son how well she knew her son and she knew her son is full of love and
• 17:00 - 17:30 compassion and has the power to do Miracles and would not allow the bridegroom and the bride to be humiliated yep honor shame Society this shows her faith in her son I know my son he's a good son a loving son a compassionate son and will not allow them to be humiliated and he has the power to do Miracles this shows her love and compassion and it shows her faith and trust in her son Protestants
• 17:30 - 18:00 are you guys with me there number three when Jesus says to woman what is this between you and I me if he was rebuking her because she was exceeding the bounds of her Authority why does father son and spirit honor her and do the miracle for her when it wasn't time for miracles so in her honor for her request they hasten and sped up the time so the hour for miracles was supposed to be later but because of her
• 18:00 - 18:30 they brought about the hour at that moment in honor of her so she sped up the hour okay number four if the Lord was rebuking her why did she not take it as a rebuke but knew Jesus was going to do it because right away next verse says to the servants do whatever he tells you did she take it as she was being rebuked and put in her place no so what the Lord was telling her is yes
• 18:30 - 19:00 you're my mother I'm your son but I am here to do the father's well it is not time for me but then the father in honor of the Blessed Mother says to the son go ahead and do it you with me there yep okay now why does he call her woman this is where we're going to go out in a bang okay you ready what day was the wedding John John uh two says the third day right yes a
• 19:00 - 19:30 wedding on the third day right bridegroom and bride right yep in John chapter 3 if you read 28 to 29 Jesus is the bridegroom right yep you sure you're getting it Third Day bridegroom and bride this is a picture of Christ the bridegroom rising from the dead on the third day and his bride re rejoicing with him that
• 19:30 - 20:00 the bridegroom is alive say I don't think you got it what day was the wedding and who is the bridegroom according to the gospels in John 3 28-29 John the Baptist says I am not the bridegroom I'm the friend of the bridegroom and you as the Bride As the bridegroom so Jesus is the bridegroom and the bride belongs to him yes so this wedding is a picture of Jesus the
• 20:00 - 20:30 bridegroom celebrating with his bride on the third day when he rose from the dead it's a picture of what's to come are you okay because you're just looking at me like did you get it or no yes I got it the wedding is meant to be a picture Third Day wedding of Christ the bridegroom celebrating with his bride on the the third day when he is raised from
• 20:30 - 21:00 the dead and according to Paul who is a picture of Christ and the church Adam and Eve Adam and Eve are picture of Christ in the church how do I know you remember in Genesis 22324 where Eve was brought to Adam after God created Eve yeah when Adam seesar goes this is Flesh of My Flesh bone of my bones she will be called woman for she came out of man womb man
• 21:00 - 21:30 out of man right and then Genesis 2:24 says something I want you to listen to this for this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and cling to his wife and the two shall become one flesh so a man leaves father and mother and clings to his wife and they become one flesh right yeah Paul says that's about Jesus Christ in the church go to Ephesians chapter 5 and read 30-32 watch here watch what's going to happen
• 21:30 - 22:00 guys watch how this is all a picture of Christ's celebration with his bride the church upon rising from the dead Okay Ephesians 53-32 and we're going to wrap it up Ephesians 5 30-32 30-32 yeah yes yeah for we are members of his body of his flesh and of his bones for this
• 22:00 - 22:30 reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife and the je shall become one flesh this is a great mystery but I speak concerning Christ and the church okay so Genesis 224 Adam and Eve they're a picture of who Christ and the church so Adam and Eve point to Christ and the church as Christ is the last Adam and the church is the last Eve the last Eve yeah I don't think you're getting it and John 2 it's a
• 22:30 - 23:00 wedding on the third day which is a picture of the bridegroom Christ celebrating his bride when the bridegroom Rises on the third day yeah and in Genesis 3 what was Eve called woman right woman yeah what is Mary called in John 2 woman woman wake up why is he calling her woman
• 23:00 - 23:30 he is not direct Genesis the woman who gave to the first Adam forbidden fruit and God says because you listen to the voice of your wife and ate of what I told you not to you are cursed but this woman tells this last Adam what to do and he honors and he obeys her I don't think you're getting it the woman of Genesis
• 23:30 - 24:00 3 told the man what to do and caus him to sin the woman of John two tells that man what to do and because of her God honors her and she begins Christ's miraculous miracle ministry of miraculously restoring the Earth so when the first man obeyed that that woman he sinned this man obeyed
• 24:00 - 24:30 this woman and brought blessing not curse did you get it yeah I saw yeah and wine is the fruit of what we call of the vine right yes wine fruit of the vine notice the first woman gave fruit from forbidden tree to the man and when he listened to her he s this woman has this man make drink from the fruit of the
• 24:30 - 25:00 vine and that fruit of the vine is something that points to the cup the wine in his blood which cleanses us from sin are you seeing how it's being reversed I'm seeing the connection are you seeing that Mary is the woman that has the last man do that which is good and salvific and restores Mankind to
• 25:00 - 25:30 undo what that woman who was married to that man had that man do in bringing sin into the world yeah so you see why he's calling her woman I see it's a reminder of the garden saying woman I am here to do what my father tells me unlike Adam who did what the woman told him in Disobedience to God this is a reversal because in Genesis 3:17 God says to Adam because
• 25:30 - 26:00 you obeyed the voice of your wife and did what I told you not to do that's why the ground is cursed thorns and thistles and you return to the dust so here the last Adam is reminding her I'm not like that Adam who go ahead ahead of the father and disobey him I do what the father tells me unlike Adam who disobeyed God by doing what the woman tells him but now my father tells me go ahead and do what you asked because he's
• 26:00 - 26:30 honoring you unlike that first woman I see you understand what was Adam's sin he disobeyed God by obeying that woman so what is Jesus saying this woman the new Eve I do what my father tells me and that's all I do and I can't go ahead of him so then the father tells the son I give you the green light honor this woman and do what she says
• 26:30 - 27:00 wow did it sink in yeah I never made the connection are you sure you got it because if you don't get it you won't know how to butcher and obliterate the Protestant butchering of this text I got it okay but I'm GNA give you a final point to connect it if you go back to John 2 and you read six all the way to 10 Jesus made wine out of water but it was water contained in six jars used by the Jews for their ritual
• 27:00 - 27:30 cleansing for their religious rights right y okay well you see it I will read John two I want you to see because I want to make the connection again with Genesis and the Sabbath Genesis 2 6- 10 yep Genesis 2 no sorry John we're talking about John John 2 Verse 6 to 10 now there was set there six water pots of
• 27:30 - 28:00 stone how many six six and these water pots were used for what according to the man of purification of the Jews did you catch it guys pay attention six water pots filled with water that the Jews would use to purify themselves for religious rights for their religion six now before you move on Not only was the wedding on the third day it actually took place on the seventh day you ready now for this when you start reading from John
• 28:00 - 28:30 1119 all the way to 51 and you count the days when Jesus arrives at the wedding it's the seventh day from the time that John the Baptist announced that he's coming to prepare for Christ because if you read John 1 19- 28 he tells the Jews he sent to have of Christ then it says the next day John 1:29 he sees Christ the Lamb of God then in John 1 35 it says the next day so if that's the next
• 28:30 - 29:00 day so let's count next day second day next day right is third day Okay then if you go on it says the next day right that's the fourth day right if you read John 1 19 to 51 if you count the days he tells the Jews I'm sent to prepare for Christ the next day that second day he sees Christ Behold the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world that's John 129 then in John 135 says the next day well that's the
• 29:00 - 29:30 fourth day right yeah talks to the Jews next day second day right second day then he sees him let me not confuse myself he talks to the Jews then the second day he sees Jesus okay then the day after that he sees him again that's day three then the day after that day four the dis disciples gather on him right four days right if you read John 1:9 of 51 they're four days right yeah and when was the
• 29:30 - 30:00 wedding on the third day so four and three is what seven you sure you got it right if you count yeah seven so the wedding took place on the seventh day which is the third day Third Day Jesus's resurrection the resurrection of the bridegroom celebrating with his bride seventh day the day of Sabbath rest yeah so when does wedding take place seven days day of rest six water
• 30:00 - 30:30 pots where the Jews would use water for purification their rituals six right yeah but then he takes that water turns it into wine Now read what happens from there so they filled up six jars of water used for the purification of the Jews right watch where we're going to go with this we're going to wrap it up and verse eight and he said to them brought some out now and take it to the master of the feast and they took it and
• 30:30 - 31:00 when the master of the feast had tasted the water the water that was made wine and did not know where it came from but the servants who had drawn the water knew the master of the feast called the bridegroom and said to him every man at the beginning sets out the good wine and when the guests have well drunk then they fear you have kept the good wine until now okay what the good wine wasn't brought first it was brought out later
• 31:00 - 31:30 right yeah and what does wine point to the cup of wine points to what the blood of Christ okay notice what it's saying you didn't be start off with the best wine when you began you served wine that wasn't as good you saved the best for last now here's what Jesus is showing you Judaism wasn't the best Judaism was inferior to the new wine New
