The interpretation of verses 13-22 of John 2?
AnswerThis passage begins with the "cleansing of the Temple". In the synoptic gospels, it occurred just before the arrest and trial of Jesus, and in fact was largely the reason for that arrest. In John, Jesus overturned the tables and drove the moneychangers from the Temple right at the beginning of his three-year minnistry.The author of John's Gospel is well known for his indulgence in plays on words. All the gospels were written after the destruction of the Temple, and so, beginning with Mark, incorporate a prophecy that the Temple would be destroyed. However, to John, the real temple is the body, so he has Jesus refer to his own future crucifixion and resurrection. He says that if you destroy this temple (which the Jews understand to be the Temple in which Jesus overturned the tables, but which he really meant to be his own body) then in three days he would raise the temple up again. john says that later, after the resurrection, the disciples remembered Jesus' words and believed.
What is Saint Barthelomy the patron saint of?
St. Barthelemy does not refer to a person, rather it is a French territory in the Leeward Islands of the Caribbean. There is, however, a Saint Bartholomew, who was one of the twelve Apostles of Jesus.
Were there always 12 apostles?
Yes. Apostle is the title Jesus gave to His closest circle of friends, the Twelve (Luke 6:13). After the first Easter, the early church expanded the term to refer to a wider circle of authoritative preachers and witnesses of the resurrected Lord. The criteria employed for replacing Judas among the Twelve included being an eye witness not only of the resurrected Jesus but also of the ministry of Jesus from the days of His baptism by John. Paul and the early church developed a slightly broader application of the term apostle that did not demand an eyewitness knowledge of Jesus' ministry. Jesus gathered a special circle of Twelve, clearly a symbolic representation of the Twelve Tribes of Israel. He was reestablishing Jewish social identity based on discipleship to Jesus. Disciple as a reference to the Twelve became an exact equivalent to apostle in those contexts where the latter word was also restricted to the Twelve.

(Matt.23:37 NIV)Although, as quoted, Jesus doesn't say "mother"... when some people refer to this passage, they sometimes say, "...as a (mother) hen gathers her chicks...".
