John 4:47 in context

The verses around it, from John 4.

43 After two days, Jesus left for Galilee.

44 Now He Himself had testified that a prophet has no honor in his own hometown.

45 Yet when He arrived, the Galileans welcomed Him. They had seen all the great things He had done in Jerusalem at the feast, for they had gone there as well.

46 So once again He came to Cana in Galilee, where He had turned the water into wine. And there was a royal official whose son lay sick at Capernaum.

47 When he heard that Jesus had come from Judea to Galilee, he went and begged Him to come down and heal his son, who was about to die.

48 Jesus said to him, “Unless you people see signs and wonders, you will never believe.”

49 “Sir,” the official said, “come down before my child dies.”

50 “Go,” said Jesus. “Your son will live.” The man took Jesus at His word and departed.

51 And while he was still on the way, his servants met him with the news that his boy was alive.
