And Jesus went into the temple of God, and cast out all them that sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the tables of the moneychangers, and the seats of them that sold doves,
Jesús entró en el templo de Dios y echó fuera a todos los que compraban y vendían allí. Volcó las mesas de los cambistas y derribó las sillas de los que vendían palomas.
Jesús limpió el templo expulsando a los comerciantes que lo habían convertido en un lugar de negocios.
📚 Contexto Histórico
In the first century AD, the Jerusalem Temple was the center of Jewish worship, where pilgrims gathered for major festivals like Passover, but it had become a site of commercial activity with merchants selling animals for sacrifices and moneychangers providing currency exchange for temple offerings. This practice, while practical for worshipers, was criticized for turning a sacred space dedicated to prayer into a bustling marketplace, which Jesus saw as a corruption of God's intended purpose. Jesus' cleansing of the temple in Matthew 21:12 occurred during his final week in Jerusalem, shortly after his triumphal entry, as an act of prophetic judgment and a demonstration of his authority.
