Jesus Cleanses the Temple
13 aNow the Passover of the Jews was at hand, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.
14 aAnd He found in the temple those who sold oxen and sheep and doves, and the money changers1 doing business.
15 When He had made a whip of cords, He drove them all out of the temple, with the sheep and the oxen, and poured out the changers’ money and overturned the tables.
16 And He said to those who sold doves, “Take these things away! Do not make aMy Father’s house a house of merchandise!”
17 Then His disciples remembered that it was written, a“Zeal for Your house has eaten Me up.”
18 So the Jews answered and said to Him, a“What sign do You show to us, since You do these things?”
19 Jesus answered and said to them, a“Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.”
