Listen "John 2:13-22"
Episode Synopsis
Jesus clears the temple court when he finds it looking more like a market than a sanctuary. This passage is infamous for the "whip of cords" Jesus fashions, which some Christians have cited to justify violence. Jonathan and Seth discuss Jesus' use of the whip and how the temple market exploited people living at the subsistence level. They also wonder how contemporary religious communities create socioeconomic restrictions on attendance.
