Today we are reading Matthew 21. In this chapter we read about Jesus cleansing the Temple. “And Jesus entered the temple and drove out all who sold and bought in the temple, and he overturned the tables of the money-changers and the seats of those who sold pigeons. He said to them, “It is written, ‘My house shall be called a house of prayer,’ but you make it a den of robbers.” And the blind and the lame came to him in the temple, and he healed them. But when the chief priests and the scribes saw the wonderful things that he did, and the children crying out in the temple, “Hosanna to the Son of David!” they were indignant, and they said to him, “Do you hear what these are saying?” And Jesus said to them, “Yes; have you never read, “‘Out of the mouth of infants and nursing babies you have prepared praise’?””
Matthew 21:12-16 ESV As we read this passage it seems incredible that the Scribes and Pharisees see the wonderful things Jesus did and they were indignant. Have you ever seen a miracle? How would you react if you saw Jesus do wonderful things? You certainly wouldn’t be indignant! I wonder if some of those who mistreated Jesus later grieved their actions. May God inspire you with the miracle of your salvation! Pastor Tim
