Reflections
GOSPEL:
John 2:13-22
Today’s gospel presents
a rare picture of Jesus expressing his
anger at the misuse of the Temple.
Merchants had turned the house of prayer
into a marketplace for buying and selling.
Jesus overturned their money tables and
drove them out of the Temple. Jesus’
reaction helps us to realize how easily we
can get our priorities mixed up. The
merchants had surely lost sight of why
people came to the Temple. It was built to
be the people’s holy place and
visiting it was their time to worship the
Lord; it was not intended as a place to do
business. This bad practice probably
started small and increased over a period
of time. Like the Jerusalem Temple,
churches, mosques and other holy places
built of stone and mortar will eventually
crumble and fall, but the presence of
Jesus remains. Gathered together in his
name and empowered by his presence, the
community of believers is a living temple,
a holy people, a holy place.
1.) Who or what helps you when you
find your priorities mixed up?
2.) How can we keep bad habits from
gaining a foothold in our lives?
3.) When does anger seem justified?
When is anger not justified?
