The Cleansing of the Temple was important in the synoptic gospels because in these gospels it was the trigger for the arrest of Jesus. The author of John's Gospel chose to make the resurrection of Lazarus the trigger for the arrest of Jesus and so moved the Cleansing of the Temple to the very beginning of the mission of Jesus, as a relatively unimportant episode.
