John 2:12-22

12After this He went down to 1Capernaum, He and His 2mother and His 3brothers and His 4disciples; and they stayed there a few days.

135The Passover of the Jews was near, and Jesus 6went up to Jerusalem. 147And He found in the temple those who were selling oxen and sheep and doves, and the money changers seated at their tables. 15And He made a scourge of cords, and drove them all out of the temple, with the sheep and the oxen; and He poured out the coins of the money changers and overturned their tables; 16and to those who were selling 8the doves He said, “Take these things away; stop making 9My Father’s house a 10place of business.” 17His 11disciples remembered that it was written, “12Zeal for Your house will consume me.” 1813The Jews then said to Him, “14What sign do You show us 15as your authority for doing these things?” 19Jesus answered them, “16Destroy this 17temple, and in three days I will raise it up.” 2018The Jews then said, “It took 19forty-six years to build this 20temple, and will You raise it up in three days?” 21But He was speaking of 21the 22temple of His body. 22So when He was raised from the dead, His 23disciples 24remembered that He said this; and they believed 25the Scripture and the word which Jesus had spoken.
