Then why was it mentioned in John 2:15?Based on logical deduction, I would guess it happened during the end of the ministry.
Pharisees and sadducees wanted to end Jesus from the beginning
Makes no sense to me.

Sorry Joe, you have manufactured 'a context' and so created a pretext.This is the context in which the prophecy is presented.
Mark 11:15-19; Luk 19:45: Matthew 21:12 is the second temple cleansing - fullfilment of Psa 69:9!Okay so I have some major confusion here. It says Jesus did this in John 2:13-15, at the very beggining of the book, which i can only assume would be the very beggining of His ministry. but it also says in Matthew 21:12 that He chased out the money changers from the temple, presumably at the end of His ministry due to how close that story is to the end of Matthew. Did He do this twice? Like when he fed the crowds twice? Thanks
Sorry, I should also mentioned the first instance happened when Jesus went up to Jerusalem. It was, as it were Christ going in the spirit of Levitical priest to examine the house (of God) for leprosy (Read Lev 19:40-45).Okay so I have some major confusion here. It says Jesus did this in John 2:13-15, at the very beggining of the book, which i can only assume would be the very beggining of His ministry. but it also says in Matthew 21:12 that He chased out the money changers from the temple, presumably at the end of His ministry due to how close that story is to the end of Matthew.

Dear quietthinker,Sorry Joe, you have manufactured 'a context' and so created a pretext.
IT does make sense . It just means john mentioned that miracle and then moves onBut this happens right before/after the water to wine, his first miracle.
This does not make sense
Their are two HUGE major false gospels getting preached these days . the prosperity one@friend of
As a side lesson from you OP; imagine the scene of coins falling all over the floor (Look up Mat 21:12; Mark 11:15; Luke 19:45 & John 2:14). And compare this with Judas throwing the 30 pieces of silver into the temple in Matthew 27:5.
In both instances you would see people scurrying to gather the coins, firstly out of greed, and secondly to hide the evidence.
In both cases, this was money paid for "sacrifices"!
The prosperity gospel, which is preached in evangelical communities around the world are doing exactly the same today!
As Jesus said "they have their reward!)
He who judges righteously is on his way.
