От Brian David
The servants here, at Jesus' bidding, draw out wine from the waterpots and take it to the governor of the wedding feast.
The servants represent our external minds: the thoughts and intentions we have about day-today things. To draw out water (or wine) represents a state of instruction; in this case instruction in the internal true ideas represented by wine. A governor represents our most basic true ideas, those drawn directly from the Lord's desire for good for us, and a feast represents the coming together of two spiritual states.
On a spiritual level, what this verse illustrates is the external mind getting its first glimpse of a new, deeper truth, then comparing that truth to its most deeply held ideas about how to be good.
