In the last couple of week we were dealing with passages from chapters 2 and 3. So, I thought it might be interesting for some of you to see a possible outline for the whole block: John 2 - 4.
Noticing some parallelism in words, themes or chronological connections I ended up with this 9-parts chiastic structure:
1. A. 2:1-12, Cana of Galilee
2. B. 2:13-23, Passover
3. C. 2:24-3:21, Witness of men - Conversation with Nicodemus
4. D. 3:22-24, Baptisms
5. E. 3:25-36, John (the Baptizer) exalts Christ
6. D', 4:1-3, Baptisms
7. C. 4:4-42, Conversation with a woman of Samaria
8. B'. 4:43-45, Historical reference to the feast (Passover)
9. A'. 4:46-54, Healing of a son in Cana of Galilee
