Why did Jesus clear the temple in such a dramatic manner? Why did not he try to accomplish the same thing more diplomatically?
He did it because sometimes in our life it seems to be that if we humans are not pressured or has to bee forced on something before we will know that is not the right thing. doing it diplomatic will have caused so many people in the temple to ague with Jesus.

Jesus was Holy and He wanted the Temple to stay Holy. When things that were going on in there it was full of sin.

Jesus wants everyone to come to the temple to try to be holy like he is. The temple is where we go to worship the Lord our father. He only tried once to accomplish the same thing because noone seemed not to care about what he was trying to do for them.

It happens only once i think..Jeus being angry. And nothing can productively help more by hurting the heart than seeing a beloved parent being upset, saddened, by our misdoings. Please Father have mercy. Sorry for all that i did wrong ''to my family'' and thank you for your rightful pained anger. Thanks be to God for your teachings it nevr took me `that` astray, but any wrong however small is painful. Thank you for your loving guidance.

Jesus did not accopmlish the same thing deplomatically because sellers were out of oder and they did not repect the Temple of GOD and misused it. The purpose of the Temple is to be called the House of prayer. Jesus was trying to remind the followers that they should use the Temple for prayers. Jesus also reminded His followers to be perfect in the eyes of God same like babies. In this regard, Jesus demonstrated that we should confess of our sins and enter into the Temple of God with a perfect heart. The Temple of God must be kept holy.

I believe that Jesus is just reminding us to have a zeal for God`s kingdom . Our body is the temple of the Holy Spirit so we must protect our body from unrighteousness. We must be bold in expressing God`s Word to beat the enemy.We must resist the devil so he will flee from us.

He wants the temple to be respected. The temple of God should be considered holy. In this situation, the people turned it into a marketplace...

I think it must have been extremely noisy in the temple, with all the activity of the people buying and selling. Jesus cleared the temple in a dramatic way, to catch everyone`s attention and to make a clear statement about what should be going on inside the temple. And He made it abundantly clear that the temple should be a place of prayer, not a place to make money off of those that wished to bring a sacrifice to God.

Jesus needed to make a strong statement, and diplomancy may not have worked here.In being so dramatic, He drew attention to Himself, and showed what the church had become''den of robbers'', and then went on to display what it was meant for''house of prayer''.Sadly, a lot of churches these days seem to be turning the church to a place for buying and selling, of business etc.Will Jesus be pleased with some of the activities going on in our churches today?:I think not.

Jesus at the Temple

Jesus entered into the temple of God, and drove out all of those who sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the money changers' tables and the seats of those who sold the doves. He said to them, "It is written, 'My house shall be called a house of prayer,' but you have made it a den of robbers!"
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 who were crying in the temple and saying, "Hosanna to the son of David!" they were indignant, and said to him, "Do you hear what these are saying?"
Jesus said to them, "Yes. Did you never read, 'Out of the mouth of babes and nursing babies you have perfected praise?'"
He left them, and went out of the city to Bethany, and lodged there.
