# sign

# these things
This refers to Jesus' actions against the money changers in the temple.
# Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up
Jesus is referring to his own body as the temple that will die and come back to life three days later. Translate this in a way that describes tearing down and rebuilding a building. Jesus is not commanding his disciples to tear down the actual temple building. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor]])
# raise it up
"cause it to stand"
