Thanks for coming in with your opinion.  I suggest an entirely
different perspective is possible but it takes getting used to
because it is a paradigm ****ft.  Please note Dr. Thiering uses
material from the Dead Sea Scrolls as a basis for a
naturalistic explanation.

Water into wine
http://www.pesherofchrist.infinitesoulutions.com/index_Water_into_wine.html

"Recognising that Qumran language gave a natural explanation
of 'turning water into wine' and so uncovered a significant piece of
history, the next step was to look at all seven signs in John's
gospel. They are constructed as a unit, as is shown by the
notes "This is the first sign that Jesus did=85=85 (John 2:11) This
is the second sign=85."(John 4:54). They list further miracles in
ascending order of incredibility =96 healing at a distance (John
4:46-54),
healing a man who had been waiting 38 years beside a
pool(John 5:1-18), feeding 5000 with 5 loaves and 2 fish
(John 6:1-15), walking on water (John 6:16-21), healing a man
blind from birth (John 9:1-41), finally raising Lazarus from the
dead (John 11:1-53)."
