John 2:13-22

\\n

13 The Passover of the Jews was at hand, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem. 14 In the temple he found those who were selling oxen and sheep and pigeons, and the money-changers sitting there. 15 And making a whip of cords, he drove them all out of the temple, with the sheep and oxen. And he poured out the coins of the money-changers and overturned their tables. 16 And he told those who sold the pigeons, \\u201cTake these things away; do not make my Father's house a house of trade.\\u201d 17 His disciples remembered that it was written, \\u201cZeal for your house will consume me.\\u201d

18 So the Jews said to him, \\u201cWhat sign do you show us for doing these things?\\u201d 19 Jesus answered them, \\u201cDestroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.\\u201d 20 The Jews then said, \\u201cIt has taken forty-six years to build this temple, and will you raise it up in three days?\\u201d 21 But he was speaking about the temple of his body. 22 When therefore he was raised from the dead, his disciples remembered that he had said this, and they believed the Scripture and the word that Jesus had spoken.
