Yes, I see it as a translator judgment. Which is where the majority of any differences in versions come from.

I see it as Christ not wanting to get involved but Mary getting Him to do it anyhow. How could she do this? She is His mother and one must "Honor thy Mother and Father". Christ never at any time broke one of the 10 commandments, part of Him being sin free and all.

According to John 2:11 this was His first sign. And Christ might have considered it rude to grab the spotlight from the bride and groom. I cant see a separation from Mary being made at this time.
