Bible: Luke 19:45-48
Cleansing the Temple
19:45 Then 1 Jesus 2 entered the temple courts 3 and began to drive out those who were selling things there, 4 19:46 saying to them, “It is written, ‘My house will be a house of prayer,’ 5 but you have turned it into a den 6 of robbers!” 7
19:47 Jesus 8 was teaching daily in the temple courts. The chief priests and the experts in the law 9 and the prominent leaders among the people were seeking to assassinate 10 him, 19:48 but 11 they could not find a way to do it, 12 for all the people hung on his words. 13
