More about these Bible coloring pages
During our last quarter's lesson, we talked about how Jesus flipped tables to defend His Father's house. The kids were amazed as I explained, 'He overturned the tables of the money changers' (Matthew 21:12). They couldn't believe Jesus would take such a strong stand! The coloring page includes images of Jesus, the tables, and the shocked crowd, which the kids will love to color. My eight-year-old even suggested using vibrant colors for the temple decorations.
