As Jesus and His disciples walked into the temple gates, He saw once again a marketplace set up where the nations were meant to worship. Once again, man's greed was getting in the way of true worship. Jesus, furious at this corruption of what was supposed to be holy, cleansed the temple and kicked out the greedy. On the way back to Bethany, the disciples saw a fig tree that Jesus had cursed earlier that day. While there, Jesus gives them a lesson on prayer and a lesson on looking healthy on the outside but being dead inside.
