17 And he left them and went out of the city to Bethany, where he spent the night.
17 And he left them, and went out of the city into Bethany; and he lodged there.
17 And leaving them, he went out of the city to Bethany and lodged there.
17 Fed up, Jesus turned on his heel and left the city for Bethany, where he spent the night.
17 Then He left them and went out of the city to Bethany, and He lodged there.
17 Then he returned to Bethany, where he stayed overnight.
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Matthew 21:17
Commentary on Matthew 21:12-17
(Read Matthew 21:12-17)
Christ found some of the courts of the temple turned into a market for cattle and things used in the sacrifices, and partly occupied by the money-changers. Our Lord drove them from the place, as he had done at his entering upon his ministry, John 2:13-17. His works testified of him more than the hosannas; and his healing in the temple was the fulfilling the promise, that the glory of the latter house should be greater than the glory of the former. If Christ came now into many parts of his visible church, how many secret evils he would discover and cleanse! And how many things daily practised under the cloak of religion, would he show to be more suitable to a den of thieves than to a house of prayer!
