Re: What Was The First Miracle That Jesus Did ?
Scott, these translations all clearly say it was his first miracle.

This, the first of his miraculous signs, Jesus performed at Cana in Galilee. He thus revealed his glory, and his disciples put their faith in him.
New Living Translation (©2007)
This miraculous sign at Cana in Galilee was the first time Jesus revealed his glory. And his disciples believed in him.
English Standard Version (©2001)
This, the first of his signs, Jesus did at Cana in Galilee, and manifested his glory. And his disciples believed in him.
International Standard Version (©2008)
Jesus did this, the first of his signs, in Cana of Galilee. He revealed his glory, and his disciples believed in him.
GOD'S WORD® Translation (©1995)
Cana in Galilee was the place where Jesus began to perform miracles. He made his glory public there, and his disciples believed in him.

it was the first time Jesus revealed his Glory,
but he had Glory before that as all was created by him.

The first time it was revealed to men, while he was in the flesh.

Re: What Was The First Miracle That Jesus Did ?
Now listen I'm not what saying which miracle came first as the gospels aren't in chronological order,The Lord turning the water into wine could have been first or it might have been another miracle,but very often we say things just because we have always heard them,and not really given much thought to a matter.

You are correct that in this case the preposition modifying one or the other would make it ambiguous as to whether that was Jesus' first miracle. So the question really is:
Does "in Cana of Galilee" modify Jesus or does it modify "this beginning of miracles"?
If it modifies "Jesus" then we are right. If it modifies "this beginning of miracles" then it is ambiguous.
****Note that preposition order generally doesn't matter. But in the case where the action is already modified by first, second, third, ... or similar reference then it does matter.

I thought that we had just shown that it was not just what we had heard, but what we had also seen.
