Yes but he gets mad and starts kicking over money lenders tables and whips them? Sounds like anti-semitism.

Friend - No, he was angry. Please read scripture for these answers. Jesus was having a "human" moment, and one well deserved. GBU

No, he purely were given pissed off with seeing human beings out to make money IN HIS FATHER'S abode each and every time he went into the temple. It became an element of worship, no longer an section to get wealthy. God is sluggish to anger, and Jesus purely had some extra days left previously he became crucified, so he needed to make a actuality sometime. and that i do not bear in mind ever interpreting something about Jesus whipping human beings. John 2 says that he made a whip and cleared out the animals (sheep and cattle), no longer human beings.

Jesus was excercising his righteous judgement upon the dishonest money lenders and empty ritualistic Pharisees who had detracted from the real purpose of the temple which was to allow people to worship God.
This was also a forward prophecy to the destruction of the temple by the Romans and the eventual destruction and judgement of the earth and its inhabitants at the end of days.

NO ... during a pilgrimage there are alot of people that come from different countries with different money and needed it changed. So, the Jewish leaders during this time frame, choose to exchange other countries monies at this place and time ... What happened was some were dishonest with the exchange and gave less than what was given and that is why Jesus was angry.

No, it's nothing related. Jesus was righteously angry because the moneychangers were making money off of the people in the temple and that pissed Jesus off because they were cheating the poor people.

No. He wasn't mad because he was drunk. He said that "I wanted to make this a house of prayer for all nations, but you have turned it into a den of robbers." The people in the temple were scamming folks out of their money for "official sacrifices".
