- Why was money being exchanged in the temple? Why is it better to talk of Christ’s “zeal” or “jealousy” instead of his anger (hint: Hebrew is involved!)? How does the closing verse of Zechariah help us interpret why Jesus drives out the moneychangers? What is the democratization of sanctification? How is the Babylonian destruction of the temple in 586 BC a foreshadowing of the crucifixion? Chad Bird tackles all these questions in this week’s video on John 2:13-22.
The Lord has blessed you with a true gift of teaching! Thank you so much for your work for the glory of God.
So beautiful! The way the Lord works blows me away. Praise God! Thank You Lord Jesus for rescuing us and allowing us to be part of Your Kingdom. ✝️🧎♀️
People often get that "zeal" twisted- they call Him an "angry, jealous sky god." Well, there's so much more to this zeal than people seem to want to believe. We are lucky to have a God Who is jealous FOR us, not OF us- or of anyone else.
You are correct. One way to check their integrity is to ask them how they would feel if their child was violated by someone to do serious harm
@maxwellcunningham4244 I know people who tell me with a straight face that if they reacted, they are afraid they would be sending somebody to hell. Therefore, they would basically just accept it.
I look forward to your weekly studies, always blessed.
Excellent.....excellent.... excellent.....class🙏🙏🙏
Awesome! I'm a new listener/ fan. New to LCMS, as well. Pastor recommended Chad Bird... Most excellent 👍
Very refreshing and enlightening
It was a wonderful talk
So enlightening. Thank you so much.
This was very helpful thank you
Very informative.
Finally something intelligent and thoughtful. I was finding nothing but people telling the story accompanied by some half-assed explanation of the facts. Is this whole incident not, in part, an extension of the principle of giving unto Caesar what is Caesar's, the Lord what is the Lord's? The money changers are out of place here at this time, are they not? Their business could have been conducted outside of the temple, right? Also, please tell me if the money changers were exploiting the Jews in need of the half sheckle by having cornered the market on the half sheckle and making usorious profit from it on this basis during this crucial time? Thank you.
Hi DKPSKs. No, the moneychangers were not out of place, Jesus' actions occurred in the temple's outer court, called "The court of the Gentiles". They were not Jews so Jesus expectation they revere the temple as Jews would was unrealistic.
The Pharisees allowed them to be there because they did the work that Jews were not allowed to do during the Jewish Passover. For any Jew, working on the Sabbath meant being stoned to death (Ex 32:12-17). It's not possible to practice strict Judaism without the assistance of non-Jews. Jesus must have known this. Make your own conclusions. Cheers, P.R.
So beautiful!!!
Beautiful? This guy is not a real preacher. He's telling you a fairy tale. I can tell you the truth of what took place in Jerusalem Capital Courthouse. His Hebrew is bad too. Turn over the tables means a change in Jewish policies. Tables refers to a system of laws that the Jewish leaders perverted.
Pastor Chad, thx for you amazing teaching. One thing I don’t understand is that why Jesus talked about faith when the apostle told him the fig tree is withered? Thx for your reply
Thanks so much for your teaching and sharing. One thing I don’t understand why Jesus curses the fig tree at the end of the chapter? Could you explain that? Thx
I addressed that question briefly in this video: th-cam.com/video/kNULw65yMOU/w-d-xo.htmlfeature=shared
Jesus never did in a literal sense curse a fig tree? To curse means to denounce a nation of people. A fig refers to fruit, fruit meaning: children, children meaning: descendants the tree refers to the forefathers. The community Jesus went to go visit was the Ethiopians and the Cushite and Canaan families of the region of Afar in Bethany. What I am saying is the truth. You must understand the usage of language. Boy did these scholars play a trick on us....lol . Mark 11:13. The word Afar in the vers of mark 11:13 is a code word for a black tribe in Ethiopia. Google it.
The reason Jesus curses ( denounces ) spoke publicly to the families of Cush, Canaan, and Shem is because of what they were committing? Slave trading? Which is how we got here in America 500 years ago. The fig refers to the fruits. Fruit meaning: descendants. Tree meaning: the forefathers. This fruit tree are the families of the Hebrews and the Ethiopians and the Canaanites.
Hi Chad! I was trying to find the 1517 sanctification document you referred to, but nothing came up on the website. Could you please steer me in the right direction? Thank you and God bless you 🙏🏼
Here it is: www.1517.org/articles/what-is-sanctification-revisiting-the-old-testament-for-the-answer
Thank you so much! 🙏🏼
46 + 3 = 49. A hint at restoration and Jubilee? (Pesach) A hint at a time of gathering and offering? (Shavuot) A hint at a time of shouting and celebration? (Yom Teruah) A hint at Jesus' second coming and the beginning of the millennial reign of Christ? (Yom Kippur) The restoration of all creation to the rightful owner? If there is a third temple to be built in Jerusalem then it will certainly need to be cleansed and not by the ashes of the heifer.
16 Behold, I have engraved you upon the palms of my hands;
your walls are continually before me. (Isaiah 49.16 TNK)
Can we not see these walls as temple walls? And from what perspective does the LORD see these walls? Is it not from within the human heart? Our sanctification is an extension of His purification of the Temple but in this case, it is the daily walk we partake in as God conforms us to the image of His Son. Loving correction. Painful at times but loving none-the-less.
Grace and peace to you brother and thank you for your ministry of faith!
THANK YOU :-)))))
Is Jesus the rider on the white horse , in Revelation’
Hi. I'm a scientific Theist, and the problem for me with Jesus' actions is they clearly show his "God the Father" is more concerned with bricks and mortar rather than people, and "Love your enemy" is nowhere to be seen. The church was made for man, not man for the church. Cheers, P.R.
Seeing that Jesus rebuilds the temple into His own body and 1 Peter 2:5 talks about we being built up into a spiritual house/temple. Can we say this temple (the saints in Jesus) is the temple of Ezekiel 40-48 and Revelation 21:2 And I saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. (Revelation 21:2, ESV)? Or are these different things, if they are different can you speak to how?
The Bible uses all this temple imagery in different but complementary ways. John focuses on how the body of Jesus is the temple. Peter says that we are a living temple and Jesus is the corner stone of the temple (see also Eph. 2:20-22). So, which is it? Well, both. Both are just different ways of depicting the reality of our union with Christ, dwelling in him, and serving as priests, all connected to the OT sanctuary. Revelation says that Jesus and the Father are our temple, or have replaced the temple. That means that their sacred presence pervades all creation, so that the new earth and new Jerusalem are the temple. That is, God dwells with humanity in the new creation; this entire creation is one vast temple; and this new creation is the same as the new Jerusalem. For a great resource on this, see The Temple and the Church's Mission by G. K. Beale.
Yes, we are the temple of the living God, as Christ is within. The cross of Jesus has made everything new and fresh. Everything means nothing excluded. We also are the New Jerusalem, the City of God. ALL of Ezekiel, Revelation plus other prophecies already has been brought into fulfilling at the cross of Jesus. 70AD.
Those books were written to the people of Israel only, not us living after the cross.
Jeremiah 7:11
Is this house, which is called by my name, become a den of robbers in your eyes? Behold, even I have seen it, saith the Lord.
So, the Father punished Jesus for our sins? To bear our sins voluntarilly convey in itself to be crushed to appease the wrath of God? Is this then Penal Substitution?
Jesus willingly took upon himself our sins. Open-eyed he went to the cross. There he was "pierced for our transgressions; he was crushed for our iniquities; upon him was the chastisement that brought us peace, and with his wounds we are healed" (Isa. 53:5).
Chris now come on. Jesus was murdered and you know that. Plus the man didn't die for our sins ? Try to use this in any court of law. Did not Moses say, each individual is liable for his own crimes. Duet 24:16. Didn't cain say, he must bear his own sin ? Didn't God tell Adam, because of him being the reason he listened to the voice. God is telling Adam , don't blame your wife, blame yourself. Stop this foolery Chad. He didn't willingly go to the cross, he was taken to the cross by your peoples and the Jews. Capital punishment. Highest crime a man can commit. But in Yeshua case, he was innocent righteous man.
God doesn't punish the righteous
@@chadbird1517 Thanks and praise be to God! Jesus is the only Way. Thank you so much for all of your teaching and your faithful witness to Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. May His peace be with you always.
Jealousy is a sin lol
Very long answer to a short question. 😢
These videos are in-depth studies not 60 second shorts. Watch as much or as little as you wish.
Christ did not cleanse the temple; it was the gospel writers who used this vile story to express their hatred for the Jews who refused their Christ. The idea of a son of God, even a mythic one, running into the temple with a whip (but only John gives him a whip) to trounce traders and overturn their tables is ridiculous. It shows gospellers who utterly lack any idea of negotiation. The next day the tables will be as usual, and the trade will continue. And where was the temple security? The real Jesus would have gathered a group of the temple elite and used political force to adjust what he believed was wrong. Were any bystanders injured? Did he heal the traders’ wounds? From whom some thirty years earlier in the temple did his parents buy their “pair of turtledoves, or two young pigeons” (these purchases indicate that they were poor). If the Christ was so keen on temple law why did he allow the Romans to destroy it and murder its inhabitants?
First five seconds you were already wrong. Jesus cleansed it twice
I never heard that before.
A matter of opinion
