Jesus Cleanses the Temple

13 aNow the Passover of the Jews was at hand, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.  
14 aAnd He found in the temple those who sold oxen and sheep and doves, and the money changers1 doing business.  
15 When He had made a whip of cords, He drove them all out of the temple, with the sheep and the oxen, and poured out the changers’ money and overturned the tables.
16 And He said to those who sold doves, “Take these things away! Do not make aMy Father’s house a house of merchandise!”  
17 Then His disciples remembered that it was written, a“Zeal for Your house has eaten Me up.”

John 2:15

Having made a scourge of rushes - (Which were strewed on the ground,) he drove all out of the temple, (that is, the court of it,) both the sheep and the oxen - Though it does not appear that he struck even them; and much less, any of the men. But a terror from God, it is evident, fell upon them.
