The story of the cleansing of the Temple occurs in the Mark (11:15-18) at the close rather than at the beginning of Jesus’ public ministry. Whether this is a separate occurrence, or whether it “really” happened at the beginning or end of His public ministry is unimportant to the telling of the story. The important message of the story is that Jesus will be raised on the third day after His crucifixion.
