The Passover of the Jews was at hand and Jesus went to Jerusalem. He found the merchants who sold oxen, sheep and doves. The moneychangers were sitting nearby. He made a whip of cords, and chased them all out of the temple, including the sheep and the oxen. He poured out the coins of the moneychangers and overturned the tables. read more.
He told those who sold doves: Take these things away. Do not make my Father's house a house of merchandise. His disciples remembered what was written. 'Zeal for your house shall eat me up.' (Psalm 69:9) The Jews asked him: What sign would you show us seeing that you do these things? Jesus replied: Destroy this temple and in three days I will raise it up. The Jews responded: It took forty-six years to build this temple and you will raise it up in three days? But he spoke of the temple of his body. When he was raised from the dead his disciples remembered that he said this. Then they believed the Scripture and the word that Jesus said. When he was in Jerusalem at the Passover feast, many saw the signs he did and expressed active faith in his name. Jesus did not trust his security to them for he understood all men. He did not need evidence about men for he knew what was in man.
