Jesus performed this first sign in Cana of Galilee. He displayed His glory, and His disciples believed in Him.

So the Jews replied to Him, “What sign of authority will You show us for doing these things?”

This, therefore, was the second sign Jesus performed after He came from Judea to Galilee.

When the people saw the sign He had done, they said, “This really is the Prophet who was to come into the world!”

“What sign then are You going to do so we may see and believe You?” they asked. “What are You going to perform?

Many came to Him and said, “John never did a sign, but everything John said about this man was true.”

This is also why the crowd met Him, because they heard He had done this sign.

Pilate also had a sign lettered and put on the cross. The inscription was:

JESUS THE NAZARENE

THE KING OF THE JEWS.

Many of the Jews read this sign, because the place where Jesus was crucified was near the city, and it was written in Hebrew, Latin, and Greek.
