10. Jn. 2: 13-17

Jn. 2: 13-17: Jesus purifies the temple and brings it to its original content and for the purpose for which it stands – ie. to worship God the Yahweh. No compromise is shown in this regard unlike the high priest Caiaphas, who allowed it to be a market place. Jesus teaches us that unless there is a connection between our piety and our everyday living, our devotions and liturgical services are pure hypocrisy.
