Matthew 21:12 - Jesus entered the temple area and drove out all who were buying and selling there. He overturned the tables of the money changers and the benches of those selling doves.
I'm a little surprised that Jesus was able to throw all these guys out by himself. Maybe he had a little help, or at least encouragement, from his friends. I wonder that no one stood up to him or tried to stop him. There's no indication that anything miraculous was going on here.
How many buyers and sellers were there to kick out? A handful? Dozens? Hundreds? Did he take them too much by surprise before they could gang up on him?
