Matthew 21:12-17 | Mark 11:15-19 | Luke 19:45-48 | John 2:13-22 |
21:12 Then Jesus entered the templeF154 and drove out all who
were selling and buying in the temple, and he overturned the tables of
the money changers and the seats of those who sold doves. 21:13 He said
to them, "It is written, "My house shall be called a house of prayer';
but you are making it a den of robbers." 21:14 The blind and the lame came
to him in the temple, and he cured them. 21:15 But when the chief priests
and the scribes saw the amazing things that he did, and heardF155
the children crying out in the temple, "Hosanna to the Son of David," they
became angry 21:16 and said to him, "Do you hear what these are saying?"
Jesus said to them, "Yes; have you never read, "Out of the mouths of infants
and nursing babies you have prepared praise for yourself'?" 21:17 He left
them, went out of the city to Bethany, and spent the night there.

11:15 Then they came to Jerusalem. And he entered the temple and began
to drive out those who were selling and those who were buying in the temple,
and he overturned the tables of the money changers and the seats of those
who sold doves; 11:16 and he would not allow anyone to carry anything through
the temple. 11:17 He was teaching and saying, "Is it not written, "My house
shall be called a house of prayer for all the nations'? But you have made
it a den of robbers." 11:18 And when the chief priests and the scribes
heard it, they kept looking for a way to kill him; for they were afraid
of him, because the whole crowd was spellbound by his teaching. 11:19
And when evening came, Jesus and his disciplesF95 went out of the city. FOOTNOTES: F95: Gk [they]: other ancient authorities read [he] |
19:45 Then he entered the temple and began to drive out those who were selling things there; 19:46 and he said, "It is written, "My house shall be a house of prayer'; but you have made it a den of robbers." 19:47 Every day he was teaching in the temple. The chief priests, the scribes, and the leaders of the people kept looking for a way to kill him; 19:48 but they did not find anything they could do, for all the people were spellbound by what they heard. |
2:13 The Passover of the Jews was near, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.
2:14 In the temple he found people selling cattle, sheep, and doves, and
the money changers seated at their tables. 2:15 Making a whip of cords,
he drove all of them out of the temple, both the sheep and the cattle.
He also poured out the coins of the money changers and overturned their
tables. 2:16 He told those who were selling the doves, "Take these things
out of here! Stop making my Father's house a marketplace!" 2:17
His disciples remembered that it was written, "Zeal for your house will consume me." 2:18 The Jews then said to him, "What sign can you show us for doing this?" 2:19 Jesus answered them, "Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up." 2:20 The Jews then said, "This temple has been under construction for forty-six years, and will you raise it up in three days?" 2:21 But he was speaking of the temple of his body. 2:22 After he was raised from the dead, his disciples remembered that he had said this; and they believed the scripture and the word that Jesus had spoken. |
