<p>2:7 <em>Jesus said to them: Fill the waterpots with water. And they filled them to the brim</em>- &quot;To the brim&quot; again speaks of the vastness of the provision (see on :6). We need have no fear that our sins somehow cannot be dealt with by the Lord's sacrifice. His provision is of a massive scale. The filling demands reference back to how &quot;of His fullness have all we received&quot; (1:16). Again we see how historical incident in John's Gospel is an exemplification of the principles with which he begins in his prologue. We are filled with His fullness, His Spirit (see on 1:16), so that we might bear out of ourselves to others in their unperceived spiritual need.</p>
