John 2:4 Douay-Rheims

And Jesus saith to her: Woman, what is that to me and to thee? my hour is not yet come.

Jamieson, Fausset & Brown

1871 Reformed

Woman--no term of disrespect in the language of that day (Joh 19:26). what . . . to do with thee--that is, "In my Father's business I have to do with Him only." It was a gentle rebuke for officious interference, entering a region from which all creatures were excluded (compare Act 4:19-20). mine hour, &c.--hinting that He would do something, but at His own time; and so she understood it (Joh 2:5).
