The Gospel According to John Includes 7 of Jesus’ Miracles
Turning water into wine (2:1-11)
Healing the nobleman’s dying son (4:46-54)
Healing the lame man at the pool of Bethesda (5:1-17)
Feeding the five thousand (6:1-15)
Walking on water (6:16-21)
Healing the man born blind (9:1-41)
Raising Lazarus from the dead (11:1-47)
“This beginning of miracles did Jesus in Cana of Galilee, and manifested forth his glory; and his disciples believed on him” (2:11).
“This is again the second miracle that Jesus did [i.e., healing the nobleman’s dying son], when he was come out of Judæa into Galilee” (4:54).
“Then gathered the chief priests and the Pharisees a council, and said, What do we? for this man doeth many miracles [including the seven highlighted in the Gospel According to John]” (11:47).
John gives his and God’s purpose in highlighting these seven signs: “And many other signs truly did Jesus in the presence of his disciples, which are not written in this book: but these are written, that ye might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing ye might have life through his name” (20:30-31).
