Some say it all happened in fulfillment of the prophecy, but it seems like Jesus did whatever he could to make sure that the prophecy was fulfilled - throwing the money changers out of the temple (an insult to the temple), stating that God would destroy the temple (a threat). He took actions that he knew would get him killed. Can you really trust that it all happened in fulfillment of the prophecy, or was Jesus just so consumed with the idea that he was the Messiah, that he made sure he "fulfilled" the prophecy? Did he do it on purpose to secure his place in history? To bolster Christianity? Or was he just crazy - like Heaven's Gate, Jim Jones, or the Waco bunch?
All thoughts welcome, though some will be more predictable than others.
