Seeking THE Truth

I have already written on this event. I applaud Jesus for what he did. Historical writings show that the Sadducees were leading the Sanhedrin and were known to be corrupt and also were working closely with the Romans to get wealthier. The cross reference to Isaiah and Jeremiah are acceptable if Jesus is saying that the temple is the place of worship of his G-d. Click here to read a few comments I had to share.

Some commentators use this passage to say that Jesus taught us the power of faith. Others say the fig tree represents Israel and Jesus was predicting how the nation will wither and go into exile. I don't think the later is right as Jesus specifically calls out the point that with faith anything is possible. But the real question is does Tanakh justify his action even if it was to teach his disciples and us about having faith. All Images are links to Google Images. Copyright violations not intended.

The outer side of the temple court was built with booths where the animals needed for sacrifice were sold. This system was used for centuries wherein people coming from far away could not bring the animals from their hometown so they would buy the animals in the temple court and offer it as a sacrifice. We know both from historical & rabbinic records that the Sadducees were corrupt and they setup rules that were exploiting the people. Hats off to Jesus !!! All Images are links to Google Images.
