It is therefore probable that the entry into Jerusalem was for this purpose. In making the purchase of the lamb a dispute appears to have arisen between Jesus' followers and the money-changers who arranged for such purchases; and the latter were, at any rate for that day, driven from the Temple precincts. It would appear from Talmudic references that this action had no lasting effect, if any, for Simon ben Gamaliel found much the same state of affairs much later (Ker. i. 7) and effected some reforms (see Derenbourg in "Histoire de la Palestine," p. 527). The act drew public attention to Jesus, who during the next few days was asked to define His position toward the conflicting parties in Jerusalem. It seemed especially to attack the emoluments of the priestly class, which accordingly asked Him to declare by what authority He had interfered with the sacrosanct arrangements of the Temple. In a somewhat enigmatic reply He placed his own claims on a level with those of John the Baptist — in other words, he based them on popular support.</dd></dl> <p>The <a href="/wiki/Jesus_Seminar" title="Jesus Seminar">Jesus Seminar</a> concluded that this was a "pink" act, "a close approximation of what Jesus did", as recorded in <a href="https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Bible_(King_James)/Mark#11:15" class="extiw" title="s:Bible (King James)/Mark">Mark 11:15–19</a>, <a href="https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Bible_(King_James)/Matthew#21:12" class="extiw" title="s:Bible (King James)/Matthew">Matthew 21:12–17</a>, <a href="https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Bible_(King_James)/Luke#19:45" class="extiw" title="s:Bible (King James)/Luke">Luke 19:45–48</a> and called the "Temple incident" and the primary cause of the <a href="/wiki/Death_of_Jesus" class="mw-redirect" title="Death of Jesus">crucifixion</a>. </p><p>The next morning they pass by the fig tree again and <a href="/wiki/Saint_Peter" title="Saint Peter">Peter</a> notices that it is now "withered", and excitedly points it out to Jesus, who replies: </p> <dl><dd><i>Have faith in God,...I tell you the truth, if anyone says to this mountain, 'Go, throw yourself into the sea', and does not doubt in his heart but believes that what he says will happen, it will be done for him.

V.). It was this precept which prompted the formula "And forgive us our sins ["ḥobot"="debts"; the equivalent of "'awonot"="sins"] as we also forgive those that have sinned ["ḥayyabim"="those that are indebted"] against us." ... On closer analysis it becomes apparent that the closing verses, Matt. vi. 14-15, refer solely to the prayer for forgiveness. Consequently the original passage was identical with Mark xi. 25; and the Lord's Prayer in its entirety is a later insertion in Matthew. Possibly the whole was taken over from the "<a href="/wiki/Didache" title="Didache">Didache</a>" (viii. 2), which in its original Jewish form may have contained the prayer exactly as "the disciples of <a href="/wiki/John_the_Baptist" title="John the Baptist">John</a>" were wont to recite it."</span> </li> <li id="cite_note-20"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a
