... money, and upset their tables, and the seats of [3] them that sold the doves; and he was teaching, and saying unto them, Is it not written, My house is a house of prayer for all peoples? and ye have made it a den [4] for robbers. And he said unto those that sold the doves, Take this hence, and [5] make not my Father’s house a house of merchandise. And he suffered not any [6] one to carry vessels inside the temple. And his disciples remembered the scripture, [7] The zeal of thy house hath eaten me up.[John 2:18] The Jews answered and said unto him, [8] What sign hast thou shewn us, that thou doest this? Jesus answered and said unto [9] them, Destroy this temple, and I shall raise it in three days. The Jews said unto him, This temple was built in forty-six ...

“After this[John 2:12-25] He went down to Capernaum, He and His mother and His brothers and His disciples; and there they abode not many days. And the passover of the Jews was at hand, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem, and He found in the temple those that sold oxen and sheep and doves, and the changers of money sitting, and He made a sort of scourge of cords, and cast them all out of the temple, and the sheep and the oxen, and He poured out the small money of the changers and overthrew their tables, and to those ...

“The Jews then answered and said unto Him, What sign showest Thou unto us, seeing that Thou doest these things?[John 2:18-19] Jesus answered and said unto them, Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.” Those of the body, and those who incline to material things, seem to me to be meant by the Jews, who, after Jesus has driven out those who make God’s house a house of merchandise, are angry at Him for treating these matters in such a way, and demand a sign, a sign which will show that the Word, whom they do not receive, has a right to do such ...

12. Then, after noticing the few days spent in Capharnaum, the evangelist comes again to the temple, where he states that Jesus spoke of the temple of His body in these terms: “Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up:”[John 2:12-22] in which declaration emphatic intimation is given not only that God was in that temple in the person of the Word that was made flesh, but also that He Himself raised the said flesh to life, in the veritable exercise of that prerogative which He has in His oneness with the Father, and according to which He does not act separately from Him; whereas it will perhaps be found that, ...

6. Observe also the very lie of the false witnesses in the Gospel, and see how it is about Resurrection. For when to the Lord had been said, “What sign showest Thou to us, that Thou doest these things?”[John 2:18] besides that which He had spoken about Jonah through another similitude of this same thing also He spake, that ye might know this peculiar sign had been especially pointed out: “Destroy this Temple,” He saith, “and in three days I will raise it up.” And they said, “In forty and six years was builded this temple, and wilt Thou in three days raise it up?” And the evangelist explaining what it was, ...

“‘What sign shewest Thou unto us seeing that Thou doest these things?’[John 2:18] What then does He reply Himself? ‘Destroy this temple,’ He says, ‘and in three days I will raise it up,’ speaking of His own body, but they did not understand Him.”
