Charles Spurgeon Commentary John 2:9

"And when the ruler of the feast tasted the water now become wine, and knew not whence it was (but the servants that had drawn the water knew), the ruler of the feast calleth the bridegroom," — John 2:9 (ASV)

There was no collusion, for the governor, who tasted it, did not know where it came from; and the servants, who knew where it came from, did not taste it, so that they did not know what it was like. If anyone objects to the Saviour making wine, I think that the best reply is that all the wine that is made from water will not harm anyone, and the more of it the better; and this was certainly made in this way. They say that there is a devil in every grape. There were no grapes here; and I am afraid that there is not much of them in most of the wine that is made nowadays; there is something worse than devil in that.
