Cana is a small village near Nazareth where Jesus' mother Mary is born and raised, as is his disciple Nathaniel and Peter's mother, who is midwife for Mary's mother Anne. When Jesus is 20, Mary takes him to Cana to select a wife, and he is about to propose to Mary (the future Magdalene) when God seizes him painfully by the skull, and his mother in shame takes him home. He suffers seizures regularly thereafter and gives up on marriage.
