How Many Times Did Yeshua Cleanse His Father’s Temple?
This question is of the utmost importance to the chronological affairs here addressed. We are not so much concerned with the cleansing of the Temple that took place at the first Passover near the beginning of Yeshua’s ministry in 29 A.D. (John 2:13-17). With the thought that Mark’s account of the cleansing in 31 A.D. was very likely on the day after the accounts in Matthew and Luke, which place their cleansings on the same day as the Triumphal entry, I would like to quote some pertinent remarks by Lenski[35]: The cleansing of the Temple reported in John 2:13 is not the same as the one reported by the synoptists. To assert that what they placed at the very end of Christ’s ministry John placed at its very beginning is to undermine the credibility of the Gospels. If these books contain such contradictions or take such liberties, who can be certain of anything they state? The thesis that John corrects the synoptists is untenable, for if these needed such correction they should be discarded
