May 30, 2012 Why did Jesus answer a question with a question, rather than just telling the Pharisees by what authority He acted?
Jesus knew that the Pharisees are unbelievers and wanted to trap him and challenge him. That is why he put question to them rather to trap them in their own net. The did not answer the question of Jesus to be on safe side.

May 28, 2012 Why did Jesus clear the temple in such a dramatic manner? Why did not he try to accomplish the same thing more diplomatically?

May 27, 2012 Why did Jesus choose to make His entry to Jerusalem in a humble manner, riding a donkey?
Because it was written in the scriptures. Secondly He wanted to show to the world that He did not come as a king to rule. He came to rule in the hearts of people by forgiving their sins, by doing service to the humanity and to carry out the order of the God.
