A:

Most people regard the miracle of turning water into wine as the fist miracle, although it only occurs in John's Gospel. It seems that the wedding party had run out of wine, but this need not have been the result of either shortages or inability to properly provide enough wine - it could simply have been that there were more guests than planned. However, New Testament scholars would generally regard this miracle as having been recorded because the author of John's Gospel wanted to demonstrate that Jesus was capable of the same miracles as the pagan gods: Dionysis was regarded as having turned water into wine at a wedding. There is another parallel to the healing miracles of the god Asclepius in the same gospel.
