A templom tisztítása

Jesus stands in the temple courts with commanding authority, overturning the commerce that has filled the house of prayer. Tables and cages are thrown aside, coins scatter across the floor, doves are released into the air, and merchants hurry away carrying their goods. The red mantle over Christ’s white robe draws the eye to His outstretched hand as He drives out those who have turned worship into profit.

This scene portrays the Cleansing of the Temple, when Jesus confronted the money changers and sellers in Jerusalem. The event reveals His zeal for true worship and His authority over the temple as the Son of God. The scattered coins, bird cages, and fleeing sellers emphasize the contrast between religious commerce and holy reverence. This artwork is well suited for teaching on repentance, worship, righteous anger, stewardship, and the sanctity of God’s house.
