📖 约翰福音 第2章(简体中文 和合本)
1 第三日,在加利利的迦拿有娶亲的筵席;耶稣的母亲在那里。
2 耶稣和祂的门徒也被请去赴席。
3 酒用尽了,耶稣的母亲对祂说:「他们没有酒了。」
4 耶稣说:「母亲,我与你有什么相干?我的时候还没有到。」
5 祂母亲对用人说:「祂告诉你们什么,你们就作什么。」
6 照犹太人洁净的规矩,有六口石缸摆在那里,每口可以盛两三桶水。
7 耶稣对用人说:「把缸倒满了水。」他们就倒满了,直到缸口。
8 耶稣又说:「现在可以舀出来,送给管筵席的。」他们就送了去。
9 管筵席的尝了那水变的酒,并不知道是哪里来的,只有舀水的用人知道。管筵席的便叫新郎来,
10 对他说:「人都是先摆上好酒,等客喝足了,才摆上次的。你倒把好酒留到如今!」
11 这是耶稣所行的头一件神迹,是在加利利的迦拿行的,显出祂的荣耀,祂的门徒就信祂了。
12 这事以后,耶稣与祂的母亲、弟兄和门徒都下迦百农去,在那里住了不多几日。
13 犹太人的逾越节近了,耶稣就上耶路撒冷去。
14 看见殿里有卖牛、羊、鸽子的,并有兑换银钱的人坐在那里,
15 耶稣就拿绳子作成鞭子,把牛、羊都赶出殿去,倒出兑换银钱之人的银钱,推翻他们的桌子;
16 又对卖鸽子的说:「把这些东西拿去!不要将我父的殿当作买卖的地方!」
17 祂的门徒就想起经上记着说:「我为你的殿心里焦急,如同火烧。」
18 因此,犹太人问祂说:「你既作这些事,还显什么神迹给我们看呢?」
19 耶稣回答说:「你们拆毁这殿,我三日内要再建立起来。」
20 犹太人便说:「这殿是四十六年才造成的,你三日内就再建立起来吗?」
21 但耶稣这话是以祂的身体为殿。
22 所以到祂从死里复活以后,门徒就想起祂说过这话,便信了圣经和耶稣所说的。
23 当耶稣在耶路撒冷过逾越节的节期,有许多人看见祂所行的神迹,就信了祂的名。
24 耶稣却不将自己交托他们,因为祂知道万人;
25 也用不着谁见证人怎样,因祂知道人心里所存的。
📖 John 2 (NIV)
1 On the third day a wedding took place at Cana in Galilee. Jesus’ mother was there,
2 and Jesus and his disciples had also been invited to the wedding.
3 When the wine was gone, Jesus’ mother said to him, “They have no more wine.”
4 “Woman, why do you involve me?” Jesus replied. “My hour has not yet come.”
5 His mother said to the servants, “Do whatever he tells you.”
6 Nearby stood six stone water jars, the kind used by the Jews for ceremonial washing, each holding from twenty to thirty gallons.
7 Jesus said to the servants, “Fill the jars with water”; so they filled them to the brim.
8 Then he told them, “Now draw some out and take it to the master of the banquet.” They did so,
9 and the master of the banquet tasted the water that had been turned into wine. He did not realize where it had come from, though the servants who had drawn the water knew. Then he called the bridegroom aside
10 and said, “Everyone brings out the choice wine first and then the cheaper wine after the guests have had too much to drink; but you have saved the best till now.”
11 What Jesus did here in Cana of Galilee was the first of the signs through which he revealed his glory; and his disciples believed in him.
12 After this he went down to Capernaum with his mother and brothers and his disciples. There they stayed for a few days.
13 When it was almost time for the Jewish Passover, Jesus went up to Jerusalem.
14 In the temple courts he found people selling cattle, sheep and doves, and others sitting at tables exchanging money.
15 So he made a whip out of cords, and drove all from the temple courts, both sheep and cattle; he scattered the coins of the money changers and overturned their tables.
16 To those who sold doves he said, “Get these out of here! Stop turning my Father’s house into a market!”
17 His disciples remembered that it is written: “Zeal for your house will consume me.”
18 The Jews then responded to him, “What sign can you show us to prove your authority to do all this?”
19 Jesus answered them, “Destroy this temple, and I will raise it again in three days.”
20 They replied, “It has taken forty-six years to build this temple, and you are going to raise it in three days?”
21 But the temple he had spoken of was his body.
22 After he was raised from the dead, his disciples recalled what he had said. Then they believed the scripture and the words that Jesus had spoken.
23 Now while he was in Jerusalem at the Passover Festival, many people saw the signs he was performing and believed in his name.
24 But Jesus would not entrust himself to them, for he knew all people.
25 He did not need any testimony about mankind, for he knew what was in each person.
📌 约翰福音 第2章 核心思想

- 这不仅仅是帮助婚宴解决尴尬,更是向门徒显明祂的荣耀,让他们相信祂。
- 表明耶稣能把平凡转化为非凡,象征祂带来新生命和丰盛的恩典。
- 洁净圣殿(12–17节)

📖 约翰福音 第2章 学习笔记
问: 在这一章里,耶稣在迦拿的婚宴上行了第一个神迹,把水变成了酒。这有什么深意呢?
答: 这不仅仅是婚宴的需要,更是祂第一次向门徒显出自己的荣耀。水变酒象征着祂能把平凡转化为非凡,把旧的转化为新的,把缺乏转化为丰盛。祂的恩典超越人间的酒——带来的是新生命。
问: 所以,这是耶稣的“启示时刻”,让门徒真正看见祂是谁?
答: 正是如此。第2章的第一个场景就让门徒的信心加深,他们开始意识到耶稣不是单纯的拉比,而是带来神国奥秘的那一位。
问: 接着,耶稣去圣殿,把做买卖的人都赶走了。这是不是有点激烈?
答: 表面看是激烈,但实质是捍卫圣洁。圣殿是“我父的殿”,应当是祷告与敬拜之所,不该被世俗利益玷污。祂的举动正好应验了经文:“我为你的殿心里焦急,如同火烧。”
问: 这表明祂对神的圣洁有极强的护卫心,对吗?
答: 对,而且这也是祂身份的进一步显明。祂不仅是婚宴上的祝福者,也是圣殿的主宰。祂的热心揭示祂与父的独特关系。
问: 我注意到,祂还说过一句话:“你们拆毁这殿,我三日内要再建立起来。” 当时的人都误解了。
答: 是的,犹太人以为祂在说眼前的圣殿,但耶稣指的是祂的身体。这里祂暗示了自己的死与复活。只有复活之后,门徒才真正明白过来。
问: 所以,祂把“殿”的意义提升了:从建筑转向祂自己。
答: 对。祂就是新的圣殿,是人与神相遇的中心。真正的敬拜不再局限于耶路撒冷,而在于祂自己。
问: 最后提到,很多人因为看见神迹就信祂,可是耶稣却没有把自己完全交托他们。为什么?
答: 因为祂知道人心。单凭外在的神迹并不足以支撑真正的信仰。真正的信,是建立在对祂的认识和内心的交托,而不是只看见奇事就被吸引。
问: 也就是说,信仰必须超越感官和表象,进入心灵深处。
答: 是的。约翰福音第2章带来的启示是:
- 耶稣是生命和丰盛的源头(婚宴的酒)。
- 敬拜必须纯粹,不容掺杂(洁净圣殿)。
- 祂的死与复活是信仰的核心(身体为殿)。
- 真信仰不是停留在神迹,而是扎根于内心的认识与信靠。
问: 我明白了。这一章从“显荣耀”到“洁净圣殿”,再到“预言复活”,实际上是层层展开,让人一步步认识耶稣是谁。
答: 没错。第二章就是一个缩影:祂既是喜乐的源泉,也是圣洁的守护者,更是复活的核心。
📌 John 2 – Core Themes
1. The Wedding at Cana (vv. 1–11)
Jesus’ first miracle: turning water into wine. More than solving an awkward shortage at the banquet, this revealed His glory to the disciples and strengthened their faith. It shows that Jesus can transform the ordinary into the extraordinary, symbolizing new life and abundant grace.
2. Cleansing the Temple (vv. 12–17)
Jesus drove out those buying and selling in the temple, declaring it was His Father’s house, meant for worship and not for trade. His actions revealed His zeal for God’s holiness and true worship (“Zeal for Your house will consume Me”).
3. The Temple of His Body (vv. 18–22)
Questioned about His authority, Jesus replied: “Destroy this temple, and I will raise it again in three days.” He was speaking of His body, foreshadowing His death and resurrection. The disciples only understood this fully after His resurrection.
4. Jesus Knows the Human Heart (vv. 23–25)
Though many believed because of His signs, Jesus did not entrust Himself to them, for He knew what was in human hearts. This shows that faith cannot rest on outward signs alone, but on truly knowing Him.
✨ Key Insights
Jesus is the source of life and abundance (water into wine). Worship must remain pure, free from worldly corruption (cleansing the temple). His death and resurrection are the foundation of faith (His body as the temple). True faith goes beyond miracles; it is rooted in inner trust and recognition of Him.
📖 Study Notes on John 2 (in Dialogue Form)
Q: In this chapter, Jesus performed His first miracle at the wedding in Cana, turning water into wine. What’s the deeper meaning?
A: It was not only about the banquet’s need but His first revelation of glory to His disciples. The transformation of water into wine symbolizes His power to turn the ordinary into the extraordinary, the old into the new, and lack into abundance. His grace surpasses earthly wine—He brings new life.
Q: So this was a kind of “revelation moment” where the disciples began to see who He truly was?
A: Exactly. From this first scene in chapter 2, their faith deepened. They began to realize that Jesus was not merely a rabbi but the One who reveals the mysteries of God’s kingdom.
Q: Then Jesus went to the temple and drove out those who were buying and selling. Wasn’t that a bit extreme?
A: On the surface, yes, but in essence, it was a defense of holiness. The temple is His Father’s house, a place for prayer and worship, not for profit. His action fulfilled the Scripture: “Zeal for Your house will consume Me.”
Q: So this shows His deep passion for God’s holiness?
A: Yes, and it also reveals His identity more clearly. He is not only the bringer of blessing at the wedding but also the Lord of the temple. His zeal shows His unique relationship with the Father.
Q: I also noticed He said, “Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.” People misunderstood that.
A: They thought He meant the physical temple, but He was speaking of His body. Here He foreshadowed His death and resurrection. Only after the resurrection did the disciples truly understand.
Q: So He redefined the meaning of “temple”—from a building to Himself.
A: Exactly. He is the new temple, the center of meeting between God and humanity. True worship is no longer confined to Jerusalem but is found in Him.
Q: At the end, it says many believed because of His miracles, but He did not entrust Himself to them. Why?
A: Because He knew the human heart. Miracles alone cannot sustain true faith. Genuine faith is built on recognizing Him and entrusting one’s heart, not merely being impressed by wonders.
Q: So faith must go beyond signs and appearances, into the depth of the heart.
A: Yes. The revelations of John 2 are:
Jesus is the source of life and abundance (the wine at Cana). Worship must be pure, not corrupted by worldly interests (the temple cleansing). His death and resurrection are the core of faith (His body as the temple). True faith is not based on miracles alone but on inward trust and recognition of Him.
Q: I see. This chapter moves step by step—from “revealing glory,” to “cleansing the temple,” to “foretelling resurrection”—all pointing to who Jesus really is.
A: Exactly. Chapter 2 is a microcosm: He is the giver of joy, the defender of holiness, and the heart of resurrection.
