The account of Jesus' cleansing of the temple is more than an overturning of the moneychangers' tables. In righteous anger, Jesus drove out the animals and those who had turned his Father's house of prayer into a marketplace. When our lives seem overturned and upside-down, God our Father, who raised Jesus from the dead, is more than able to turn right-side-up whatever is overturned in our lives. Jesus, who overturned the power of sin, death, and hell, is at work in our lives. We look to him, and like his first disciples, we too, “… believe the scripture and the word that Jesus had spoken” (John 2:22).
