John [Yah is gracious] 2:13-25

¹³The Pesac ·Passover· in Judah Praised was at hand, and Yeshua Salvation went up to Jerusalem City of peace.

¹⁴He found in the temple those who sold oxen, sheep, and doves, and the changers of money sitting.

¹⁵He made a whip of cords, and threw all out of the temple, both the sheep and the oxen; and he poured out the changers’ money, and overthrew their tables.

¹⁶To those who sold the doves, he said, “Take these things out of here! Don’t make 'Avi ·my Father·’s house a marketplace!”

¹⁷(His disciples later remembered that it was written, “Zeal for your house will eat me up.”)

¹⁸The Jews Praisers therefore answered him, “What sign do you show us, seeing that you do these things?”

¹⁹Yeshua Salvation answered them, “Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.”

²⁰The Jews Praisers therefore said, “It took forty-six years to build this temple! Will you raise it up in three days?”

²¹But he spoke of the temple of his body.

²²When therefore he was raised from the dead, his disciples remembered that he said this, and they believed the Scripture, and the word which Yeshua Salvation had said.

²³Now when he was in Jerusalem City of peace at the Pesac ·Passover·, during the feast, many believed in his name, observing his signs which he did.

²⁴But Yeshua Salvation didn’t trust himself to them, because he knew everyone,

²⁵and because he didn’t need for anyone to testify concerning man; for he himself knew what was in man.
