Cleansing the Temple

Luke 19:45–48 ❧ Cleansing the Temple (Matthew), Cleansing the Temple (Mark), Cleansing the Temple (John)

45He entered into the temple, and began to drive out those who bought and sold in it, 46saying to them, “It is written, ‘My house is a house of prayer,’ but you have made it a ‘den of robbers’!”

47He was teaching daily in the temple, but the chief priests and the scribes and the leading men among the people sought to destroy him. 48They couldn’t find what they might do, for all the people hung on to every word that he said.
