Was Jesus trying to incite his death (eg. temple cleansing, accusation of leaders?)
For the past 3 years in His ministry, Jesus had by many means ''stories, parables, miracles, speeches'' tried to give the people the god message of the Love God. But people were afraid to accept Him and follow Him due to fear of the leaders. So Jesus openly accused the leaders in front of the people, so that people will believe He is above all the leaders ''some even wondered, but failed to believe in Him, as we sometimes do''. So Jesus was trying His very best to do his mission.

No, Jesus wasn`t trying to incite his death by accussing the Jewish leaders, Jesus was only doing what He was sent for i.e. to preach to the people about the Kingdom of God. Jesus was only condemning sin and Jesus already knew that He would be crucified by the people because the people were living in sin and unless the sins are washed by His blood, the peole will not understand about the Kingdom of God.

As Ive read the lesson I came to realized that we can do sacrifices for ourselves just to be able to save our brothers from sin and there is always a reward if we follow the will of God, that by being wih Him in heaven.

Jesus did nothing of His own accord. He was simply following His Father`s instructions. He could have turned a blind eye to certain events, or kept quiet, but that is not what His Father intended. He was the perfect Son.
