Contextual Overview
12Later, Jesus and his cowboys rode to Capernaum for a spell. His mother and brothers rode along also.
13It was gettin' close to the big Passover celebration, so Jesus went to Jerusalem.
14When he got to the main church, he saw people making a mockery of the sacrificial system by selling cattle, sheep, and doves. There were also people making a fortune off of exchanging money for foreigners.
15Jesus sat down and braided a bullwhip out of some rope and sent all those scoundrels runnin' for the fences. He drove out all the stock and flipped over the tables of the money exchangers.
16He stopped in front of the dove salesmen and said, "Get out and take all these doves with you. My Daddy's house isn't a shopping center."
17His cowboys remembered that it had been written long ago, "I'll protect my Daddy's place at all cost."
18But Jesus's actions stirred up the Jewish leaders. They asked him, "Who do you think you are? If God gave you authority to do this, then give us a sign to prove it, cowboy."
19Jesus said, "Knock this church down, and I'll rebuild it in three days."
20They scoffed at him, "It took forty-six years to build this church. You think you could rebuild it in three days?"
21But they didn't realize that when he said "this church", he was talking about his body.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
After this he went down to Capernaum,.... After he had been at Cana, and at the wedding there: after he had wrought the miracle of turning water into wine; and after he had manifested forth the glory of his deity thereby, and had confirmed the faith of his disciples, he departed from thence, and went lower into the country of Galilee, to Capernaum, a city near the sea of Tiberias; and which, from henceforward, he made the more usual place of his residence, and whither he frequently resorted, and therefore it is called his city, Matthew 9:1. This refers not to the same journey recorded in Matthew 4:12, for that was after John was cast into prison, whereas this was before; see John 3:24; the company that went with him, are as follow,
he, and his mother; who had been with him at Cana, and was a principal person at the wedding: and she now returning home, he accompanies her, to see her to her own habitation; or to settle her in Capernaum, whilst he went about discharging his public ministry.
And his brethren; or near kinsmen, according to the flesh, the sons of Alphaeus, or Cleophas, and Mary, sister to the mother of our Lord; whose names were James, Joses, Simon, and Judas, three of which afterwards became his apostles:
and his disciples: as many as he had yet called, which were Andrew, and the disciple that followed Jesus with him, and Simon Peter, and Philip, and Nathanael,
and they continued there not many days; not because of the impenitence, unbelief, and wickedness of the place, but for the reason following.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
To Capernaum - See the notes at Matthew 4:13.
Not many days - The reason why he remained there no longer was that the Passover was near, and they went up to Jerusalem to attend it.
