So the other disciple who had first come to the tomb then also entered, and he saw and believed

Good morning. The Passover of the Jews was near, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem. John puts what will follow at the beginning of his gospel, and the other gospels put it at the end. Since John was there, then I believe he is the one that is right. And He found in the temple those who were selling oxen and sheep and doves, and the money changers seated at their tables. Of course it was necessary to have all these things, but not in the temple. People needed the animals to sacrifice; but it would’ve been a big hassle to bring them with them. People also had to have the right type of currency, and of course you could only get it here. But here should not have been in the temple. He made a scourge of cords, and drove them all out of the temple. He poured out the coins of the money-changers and overturned their tables. Stop making My Father’s house a place of business. The Jews were upset with Him. They wanted to know what sign do You show us as Your authority for doing these things? Jesus did not answer them directly. Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up. He was talking about His body, but they thought He was talking about the physical temple. When He was raised from the dead, His disciples remembered that He said this; and they believed the scripture and the word which Jesus had spoken. Father thank You that Jesus did not back down when the Jews confronted Him. Thank You that He was raised from the dead that we might live.
