41 But as he came closer to Jerusalem and saw the city ahead, he began to weep.
42 “How I wish today that you of all people would understand the way to peace. But now it is too late, and peace is hidden from your eyes.

45 Then Jesus entered the Temple and began to drive out the people selling animals for sacrifices.
