This week we read John 2:13-25, this gospel’s version of Jesus’s spectacular scene in the Temple at Passover. Unlike the synoptic gospels, John does not suggest any corruption or dishonesty at play in the Temple system - so what is bothering Jesus? We have an honest, interfaith conversation about what happens when one person stands up for what they think is right, in a way that ensures that many others cannot do what they think is right. We wonder how lonely it might have been for Jesus to walk through the world knowing already the pitfalls of human nature; knowing that he couldn’t really entrust himself to anyone. And we recognize again and again the abiding patience of the disciples, who couldn’t possibly understand the import of what Jesus said as he said it, but held onto the memory of it to unlock it later.
