Sign #1 - God in Jesus Provides

Our story starts on the third day. This is taking us back to 1:43, where is says Jesus left for Galilee. This is the third day since Jesus began that trip, and He is now in Cana of Galilee. Cana is a small, out of the way village. Couple of quick observations about the story: first, there is no mention of Joseph, Mary's husband. After the birth of Jesus, Joseph is only mentioned once more and that is story of a trip they took to Jerusalem for the Passover when Jesus was probably about 12. There really is no reliable tradition or source that tells us what happened to Joseph, though it is safe to assume he probably died sometime between Jesus being 12 and this moment right here, where Jesus is probably around 30. Notice also that verse 11 says this was His first miracle.
