Was Jesus trying to incite his death (eg. temple cleansing, accusation of leaders?)
Jesus knew he will die on the cross to save the world and redeem the souls. Die is a horrible feeling that a normal human being shall afraid of. Somehow, Jesus knew that for him to die is for us to survive, he obedient to the Father`s will, he obedient to death, though he was afraid. I believe that Jesus tried to incite his death to the people was to convince them that he is the only way to the Father, whoever believe in him shall not perish but get eternal life. His purpose was to save the people.

no. Jesus was correcting those religious leaders because what they did was not in conformity to the scriptures.so they manipulated the people of God.Jesus was just showing obedience to God the father.

Jesus was not trying to incite His own death but trying to lead the Jewish people to God and not the paths of hypocrisy and money like the Sadducees and Pharisees.It was the will of God that He die on the cross, for the sins of the world.

Jesus could have easily changed what had to happen to die for us to pay the our price, but He didn`t because He loved us so much and He did what His Father in heaven sent Him to come to this life to show us the way to salvation. All this things had to happened.
