IN THIS LESSON - John 2:13-22

Depicts the event where Jesus drives out the money changers and merchants from the temple in Jerusalem. This action is a dramatic demonstration of Jesus' zeal for the purity of God's house. By overturning the tables and declaring, “Do not make My Father’s house a house of merchandise,” Jesus challenges the commercialization and corruption of the temple. This passage also hints at His coming death and resurrection, as He refers to the destruction of the temple and its rebuilding in three days—a prophecy pointing to His own body as the true temple.
