where He had the interview with the
Samaritan woman, Jesus travelled and
preached in Galilee of which ministry
no record is made. until He reached
Cana, where He had attended a we'd
ding and made wine out OF water.
While in that city He healed the son of
a nobleman who was lying sick in Ca
pernaum. Journeying thence He made
another hasty visit to Jerusalem and
there healed an impotent man who for
thirty-eight years had been lying at
the pool of Bethesda. 1t was about
that time that 'Herod cast John the
Baptist into prison. When the voice OF
the great forerunner was silenced,
Jesus entered with great zeal into His
work. Leaving Jerusalem He passed
on northward into Galilee and halted
at the little town of Nazareth, the
home of His boyhood. 1t was the first
time He had visited the place after
leaving 1t to go to the Jordan for bap-
tisln. Matt. ii: 23.)
