and then as a widow for 84 years. She never left the Temple, but continued to worship there night and day with times of fasting and prayer.

Three days later, they found him in the Temple sitting among the teachers, listening to them, and posing questions to them.

The Devil also took him into Jerusalem and had him stand on the highest point of the Temple. He told Jesus, "Since you are the Son of God, throw yourself down from here,

One day, while Jesus was teaching the people in the Temple and telling them the good news, the high priests and the scribes came with the elders

Then Jesus told the high priests, the Temple police, and the elders, who had come for him, "Have you come out with swords and clubs as if I were a bandit?

While I was with you day after day in the Temple, you didn't lay a hand on me. But this is your hour, when darkness reigns!"

They were continually in the Temple, blessing God.
