<p>2:2 <em>Jesus and his disciples were also invited to the marriage</em>- As noted on :1, they were invited, but Mary is said to be &quot;there&quot;. The invitation confirms our suggestions in chapter 1, that the Lord was known to people in Galilee. He may well have known Nathanael, seeing that Nathanael was from Cana (21:2) and the Lord was invited to a wedding in Cana. He was known there- but all were surprised that the carpenter from Nazareth was in fact God's son and Messiah.</p>
