The scene of the Lord’s first miracle and of His second in Galilee: the native place of Nathanael (
John 2:1, 11
1
And the third day there was a marriage in Cana of Galilee; and the mother of Jesus was there: (John 2:1)
11
This beginning of miracles did Jesus in Cana of Galilee, and manifested forth his glory; and his disciples believed on him. (John 2:11)
;
John 4:46
46
So Jesus came again into Cana of Galilee, where he made the water wine. And there was a certain nobleman, whose son was sick at Capernaum. (John 4:46)
;
John 21:2
2
There were together Simon Peter, and Thomas called Didymus, and Nathanael of Cana in Galilee, and the sons of Zebedee, and two other of his disciples. (John 21:2)
). There is nothing in these passages to tell where Cana was situated except that it was in the neighborhood of Capernaum and on higher ground. It is identified by most with
Kefr Kenna
, 32° 45' N, 35° 20' E, but others prefer
Kana el Jell
, about 8 miles north of Nazareth, the name of which more resembles Cana.
