Jesus Confronts (2 of 11)
Series: The Greatest Week in History
Scott Maze
Luke 19:45-48
Video is shown of Jesus' throwing the Money-Changers out of the Temple before sermon.
This is three month long study of the last week of Jesus' earthly life. This is greatest week in history. Bracketed by Palm Sunday on one end and Easter Sunday on the other, this is the most important week in history. On Friday, Jesus will die. On Thursday, Judas will betray Him. Today's focus is Monday of the Greatest Week in History.

2) Jesus cleanses the Temple;
and 3) Jesus returns to Bethany (Mark 11:19).

And his mother said to him, ''Son, why have you treated us so? Behold, your father and I have been searching for you in great distress.'' 49 And he said to them, ''Why were you looking for me? Did you not know that I must be in my Father's house'' (Luke 2:41-49)?
And he entered the temple and began to drive out those who sold, 46 saying to ...
