Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Luke 19:45

And he entered into the temple, and began to cast out them that sold, saying unto them, It is written, And my house shall be a house of prayer: but ye have made it a den of robbers.THE SECOND CLEANSING OF THE TEMPLEThis was the second cleansing of the temple, the first having taken place quite early in his ministry; and there are significant differences. Here there is no order to "cease and desist," as in the first. It was too late; the day of grace was past. Also, the finality of "ye have made... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Luke 19:41-48

B. The beginning of Jesus’ ministry in Jerusalem 19:41-48This is a transitional section that bridges Jesus’ approach to the city and His teaching in it. Luke first recorded Jesus weeping over the city from outside its walls because He knew what lay before its people. Then the writer wrote of Jesus cleansing the temple and teaching there. read more

2. Jesus’ cleansing of the temple 19:45-46 (cf. Matthew 21:12-13; Mark 11:15-17)Judgment began when Jesus threw the merchants out of the temple courtyard. Jesus did this twice, once at the beginning of His ministry (John 2:13-22) and here at the end. Luke stressed the temple as a place of prayer. Jesus purified it quoting from Isaiah 56:7 and Jeremiah 7:11. Luke’s interest in this incident, which he related briefly, was primarily as the introduction to Jesus’ teaching that followed. It also... read more

(45-48) And he went into the temple.—See Notes on Matthew 21:12-17; Mark 11:15-19. St. Luke apparently agrees with St. Matthew in thinking of the expulsion of the money-changers as taking place on the same day as the Entry. His narrative is here the least descriptive of the three. read more

Expositor's Dictionary of Texts - Luke 19:1-48

Zaccheus: The Advantage of Disadvantages Luke 19:2-3 It was in Jericho a place that had a bad name and has, I believe to this day. Of all men in the city that were spoken against and detested by every citizen of Jericho, probably Zaccheus stood first. To be a publican was bad enough. To be the chief of the publicans was worse still. And to have got rich at it completed the offence. The publican was the representative of foreign power that these proud people could not but detest the collector... read more
