John 2:15
Jesus Cleanses the Temple
14In the temple courts He found men selling cattle, sheep, and doves, and money changers seated at their tables.15So He made a whip out of cords and drove all from the temple courts, both sheep and cattle. He poured out the coins of the money changers and overturned their tables.16To those selling doves He said, “Get these out of here! How dare you turn My Father’s house into a marketplace!”
