John 1:19

[The Gospel of John begins literally in Greek with the words "In the beginning." Later in the chapter, the phrase "the next day" is used three times, culminating in "the third day," see John 1:29, 35, 43; 2:1. John seems to make a conscious allusion to the creation story in Genesis and uses it as a template, see Gen. 1. Here in verse 19, the first day begins, which is logical since verse 29 explicitly states that "the next day" begins there.
The headings in this passage follow the days that form a "first week." It culminates with the wedding at Cana, which in this case could correspond to the wedding of Adam and Eve! According to rabbinic tradition, Adam's sleep, when God creates Eve, marks the passing of a night, see Gen. 1:19–24. The rabbis further reason that it is therefore only on the seventh day that he meets his bride, and she becomes his wife! In Gen. 2:24 there is a clear reference to marriage and wedding.]
Here is what John replied when the Jews sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask him, "Who are you?"
