Was Jesus trying to incite his death (eg. temple cleansing, accusation of leaders?)
Jesus knew his fate, so he kept on doing God`s work. He knew he had to do this because of the sins which we committ daily, he had to save us by dying on the cross. He was tortured for us, because of the way we live our lives without love. He did all these things so that we might repent and be saved and accept him as our personal friend and saviour. Thank you Lord for all you have done and is still doing for us.

He gave everybody an oportunity of salvation, everybody then ''as in now'' but then the people from Israel did not recognized Him as their Mesiah. The son of God. Even after all they saw him do and say. So Jesus was only doing what He was comanded to do by God his father. It was men who incited his death. Pilate even try to mediate so men could have a satisfaction and men wanted more. It is then as in now what drives this world, we men, want more and more of everything that is wrong as then when they knew it was wrong. But the Resurection is the key for us now, and it is the key for this world now and for ever. If we all would belive in Jesus resurrection, we could all see. It was God`s will that His son died, and the Son acomplished it for all of us. Now and then we can see the true dimension of things through the life and death of Jesus....let`s all belive and re-open the gates of heaven.

Jesus was only keeping to the script that was written long before His own birth. It was necessary for Him to draw attention to what was to come so that the believers would grow strong in their faith with each predicted thing happening.

OK, so Jesus did not stop His own death, but could he not have blocked out the pain? I`ll answer my own question, see if you agree. The pain and humiliation the Jesus suffered was the sum of our sins falling on Him. Without the pain, suffering and hum

Maybe not. Jesus had said when and how he would die. Yes, He could have taken some form of defensive action, but that`s not why He came, is it? Imagine if Jesus had said No, and stopped the whole issue. We wouldn`t have this course, because there would be no Saviour to follow. No resurection to give us eternal life. No way of coming to the Father. Maybe Jesus was using the short time that He had, to show what things were really like in the temple.

Why do the jewish leaders who knew God`s laws and commandments did not believe Jesus was the son of God?

I don`t think so, but he knew what was going to take place at the temple from being arrested to being tortured and trials to being crucified and coming back to Life ''Resurrection''. Jesus knew that all this had to take place in order for him to redeem us from sin. So that we could be forgiven by God to have eternal life with him in heaven. Thank You! Heavenly Father for sending your son to die on the cross for me. So that I may be forgiven of sin and have eternal life with you in heaven. Jesus is Lord! Amen Ephesians 2: 4-10
