Answer & Explanation

The Bible does not give a reason.

The correct answer is The Bible does not give a reason.. This is really a question about proper Biblical exegesis. All of the answers seem to be correct, but they are a matter of human assumption and interpretation, not a matter of Biblical teaching. We do not actually know why Jesus went there. (See Gospel of Matthew)
