Jesus' triumphal entry into Jerusalem was confusing and upsetting for many, especially those in positions of power at the time. For those who were hoping for a Messiah that would stand up to the occupying Roman forces, this "king" entering the city on a donkey must have been a massive let down. For the religious leaders of the day, who had carved out comfortable positions of power amongst the Hebrew people, their surprise would have quickly turned to indignance as they saw Jesus turning over tables in the temple and calling it "My house." And today, many are still confused and upset by a King who doesn't seem interested in defeating the enemies around them or changing their difficult circumstances. But Jesus' zeal for the physical house of God, the Temple, is no less than His zeal for our hearts, and He will not allow our idols and sin to set up shop there.
