Mary’s intercession at the marriage feast in Cana triggers Jesus’ ministry and a foreshadowing of the Eucharistic celebration of the Lamb.

Not ture.....Mary got ahead of the game and that's why Jesus rebuked her then. "My time has not yet come". She stepped out where she shouldn't have...she knew he was to be the savior of the world...but there was nothing she could do to hasten that. Trying to get her son to reveal who He was prematurely is pretty much a mother meddling in her sons life...we all have done this as moms and though meaning well we too have been rebuked for meddling ahead of them. MAry was simply being a mom...

Who gave you that interpretation? Where in scripture does it say that Mary was "Trying to get her son to reveal who He was prematurely"?
