The Boy Jesus At The Temple

Contributed by Chris Appleby on May 14, 2007

Jesus comes as the Son of God so he must be about his Father’s business.

Contributed by Chuck Brooks on Sep 24, 2020

The Prophet Haggai’s message from the Lord was plain and simple: It’s time to get back to the Lord’s work.

In 520 BC, the prophet Haggai (Hag-eye) recorded four messages to the Jewish people of Jerusalem, eighteen years after their return from exile in Babylon (538 BC). Haggai 2:3 seems to indicate that the prophet had seen Jerusalem in all her glory, before the destruction of the temple, and the ...read more

Jesus Cleanses The Temple

Contributed by Revd. Martin Dale on Mar 3, 2018

Why does Jesus cleanse the Temple rather than deal with the Roman occuppying force. In short, because the Priests were not living up to the standards God expected from them. The Temple's uses were being abused. God requires higher standards.

Jesus Vs The Temple

Jesus Teaching At The Temple Series

Contributed by T.j. Conwell on Jul 9, 2016

Jesus is not asking the Jews to become expert judges of one another– far from it. He is instructing them (and us) to know who it is we should worship; and when we worship, to do so properly without our own views inserted.

Jesus' Last Visit To The Temple

Contributed by James May on Apr 5, 2023

There is no doubt that Jesus' last temple visit was less than positive. It had become a den of thieves. However after he cleansed that temple it once again became a House of Prayer.

After the Triumphal Entry of Jesus through the Eastern Gate, the scripture records that he then left the city of Jerusalem and went to stay the night at the home of his friends, Mary, Martha and Lazarus. Then the next morning he set out once again to go to Jerusalem, about 2 miles away. It was ...read more
