Contextual Overview
1 And on the third day a marriage took place in Cana of Galilee, and the mother of Jesus was there. 2 And Jesus and His disciples also were invited to the marriage. 3 And being short of wine, the mother of Jesus said to Him, They have no wine. 4 Jesus said to her, What is that to Me and to you, woman? My hour has not yet come. 5 His mother said to the servants, Whatever He says to you, do. 6 And there were six stone waterpots standing, according to the purification of the Jews, each containing two or three measures. 7 Jesus said to them, Fill the waterpots with water. And they filled them to the top. 8 And He said to them, Now draw out and carry to the master of the feast. And they carried it. 9 But when the master of the feast tasted the water that had become wine, and did not know from where it was (but the servants drawing the water knew), the master of the feast called the bridegroom, 10 and he said to him, Every man first sets on the good wine, and when they have drunk freely, then the worse. You have kept the good wine until now.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
His mother said unto the servants,.... She took the reproof in good part, and by the words he said, and the manner in which he spoke them, or by the looks he gave, and the gestures he might use, she hoped, and even believed, that the thing she moved for would be done; and therefore went immediately to the servants, and gave them the following instructions:
whatsoever he saith unto you, do [it]; punctually observe and obey his orders in every circumstance.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
His mother saith ... - It is evident from this verse that his mother did not understand what he had said as a harsh reproof and repulse, but as an indication of his willingness at the proper time to furnish wine. In all this transaction he evinced the appropriate feelings of a son toward a mother.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse John 2:5. His mother saith, &c.] The virgin seems to have understood our Lord as hinted above. It was not yet time to grant them a supply, because the want had not as yet been generally felt. But, silently receiving the respectful caution, she saw that the miracle should be wrought when it best suited the purposes of the Divine wisdom.
