In this excerpt, the narrative unfolds as Jesus enters Jerusalem, stirring the city with the question, "Who is this?" The crowds identify him as "Jesus the prophet of Nazareth in Galilee." Upon entering the temple, Jesus confronts the merchants, overturning their tables and declaring that the temple should be a house of prayer, not a den of robbers. He then heals the blind and lame who approach him. The next day, after returning to Bethany, he encounters a fig tree that bears no fruit, despite its leaves, and curses it, proclaiming that no one will eat from it again. This act is witnessed by his disciples. Meanwhile, some Pharisees urge Jesus to rebuke his disciples for their praises, to which he responds that if they remain silent, the stones will cry out. This text captures significant moments of Jesus' ministry, highlighting his authority and the reactions of those around him.
