A bartender watering drinks down as it gets later isn’t a new trick. At the wedding at Cana, Jesus did the opposite. After changing the water into wine, the crowd knew this wine was as good later in the evening as it was earlier. Jesus’ wine (blood) is everlasting; it never dilutes and is the vitality that forms the connecting link between body and soul.
John 2:9-10 (TLB) 9 When the master of ceremonies tasted the water that was now wine, not knowing where it had come from (though, of course, the servants did), he called the bridegroom over. 10 “This is wonderful stuff!” he said. “You’re different from most. Usually a host uses the best wine first, and afterwards, when everyone is full and doesn’t care, then he brings out the less expensive brands. But you have kept the best for the last!”
