VI. When Jesus quotes Isaiah 56:7 (in Mark chapter 11), His frustration is with turning the father’s house into a “den of robbers.” Who were the people that were being “robbed” or taken advantage of? What does this indicate about the heart of Jesus?

VII. How might you demonstrate the zeal of Jesus more in your daily life this week? What steps do you need to take now or in the future?
