John's Gospel has Jesus clearing the Temple of money-changers at the beginning of the mission of Jesus, some three years befor the crucifixion. In this gospel, Jesus did not make any effort to hide his true nature, as he does in the other gospels, on the contrary making every effort to proclaim his mission. It was consistent with this theme that he would declare his interest in the Temple of his Father as soon as possible.

The synoptic gospels all place this incident at the end of the mission of Jesus, as the catalyst for the arrest of Jesus. This appears to have taken place in the synoptic gospels on the day when Jesus entered Jerusalem, commemorated today as Palm Sunday.

Why Did Jesus Clear The Temple?

A:All the gospels agree that Jesus cleansed the Temple, overturning the tables of the moneychangers and the seats of those who sold doves, because they had made the house of his father a den of thieves. The synoptic gospels (Matthew, Mark and Luke) place this event at the very end of his ministry as the trigger for the arrrest of Jesus. John's Gospel uses the miracle of the resurrection of Lazarus as the trigger for the arrest of Jesus, and so moves the cleansing of the Temple to the beginning of the mission of Jesus.
