196 Wim J.C. Weren his brothers and sisters are mentioned. Around these are again two longer parts (A: 12,1-45; A’: 14,1–16,12), in which Jesus is in dispute with the Pharisees. g) The structure of 17,1–25,46 The second part of the corpus (17,1–25,46) exhibits roughly the same pattern as the first part. It also has two long sections (17,1–20,24 and 21,18–25,46), that are linked to one another by a hinge text (21,1- 17). In a schematic overview: 4,18–16,12 16,13-28 17,1–25,46 (hinge) 4,18–11,1 11,2-30 12,1–16,12 17,1–20,34 21,1-17 21,18–25,46 (hinge) (hinge) That 17,1–20,34 is a continuous sequence is determined especially by the new refrain that combines the various topographical information to form a long journey to Jerusalem. The refrain is introduced in 16,21 to return in its most complete form in 17,22-23 and 20,18-19; parts of it are also echoed in 17,9.12 and 20,28. In comparison with 4,18–16,12, Jesus now travels in the opposite direction. This impression is strengthened by the fact that stopping places are mentioned (a mountain, the lake at Capernaum, his house) that were also mentioned when he moved further away from Jerusalem and Judea. As from 19,1, he leaves Galilee and continues his journey through Judea, with Jericho being the last place he visits before arriving in Jerusalem. The journey to Jerusalem is thus divided into two routes (17,1-27 and 19,1–20,34). The first route brings him to Capernaum where he holds one of his lengthy discourses. Summarized: A 17,1-27 The first route: from the district of Caesarea Philippi to Capernaum B 18,1-35 Discourse on the mutual relations within the community A’ 19,1–20,34 The second route: from Capernaum in Galilee to Jericho in Judea The journey’s destination is reached in 21,1-17. This part is a textual unit, because it has unity of time. In Mt, the entry into Jerusalem and the cleansing of the temple both take place on the same day (in Mark, this covers two days). It is not until 21,17 that Jesus leaves the city to spend the night in Bethany (35). The passage also has (35) Cf. GNILKA, Das Matthäusevangelium, II, 209: “Man könnte von einem Tag Jesu in Jerusalem sprechen, der durch Einzug und Tempelprotest gekennzeichnet ist”.
