Now all that we planned so carefully is a complete mess!
So, who do you think you are? Creating a revolution and upsetting the well established order!Who gave you the authority to do this?
Our profits are gone and how will we manage?
You want proof for My authority? Destroy this Temple and I will rebuild it again in three days!
What do you want to tell us, a parable?
Let's call this (so called) Messiah to order: He has to justify Himself.
He's completely crazy! He's out of His mind. It took 46 years to build this Temple and He's going to rebuild it again in three days?
It was a parable indeed. Jesus spoke of His body, the new temple of God!... Destroyed, killed, He would rise again from
the dead after three days. After Jesus' resurrection the disciples understood it.
