Merchandise: Is it turning the House of God
into a 'Den of Robbers'? You can get
'Testamints,' 'His Essence Candles,' 'Prayer
Dice,' 'This Blood's For You T-Shirts,' 'In
Case of Rapture...' bumperstickers, and of
course the 'Prayer of Jabez (pet edition)'

What was going on in Jesus's overturning the money
changers tables? The Gospel of Luke focuses upon
Christ's journey toward the holy place. He
'steadfastly set His face to go to Jerusalem'
(9:51). Emphatically, 'His face was set for the
journey to Jerusalem' (9:53, see also 13:22, 33,
17:11, 18:31, 19:11, 28). The Gospel of Luke is
centrally concerned with the fate of the temple.
When He arrives at the Temple, He performs a
prophetic action in the temple (Luke 19:45).
Why does Jesus 'triumphal entry' culminate in the
'cleansing' of the temple? We have been told that
Jesus is concerned about overpriced livestock. Or
that he is condemning the sale of sacrificial
animals. Not at all. Is Jesus ten-chapter journey
to Jerusalem concluding with a reproof for
price-fixing in the House of God? Is it for
commerce on the premises of the temple?
