A Miracle of Another Kind
John 2:13-25, NRSV
Reflections
In the act of cleansing the temple, he (Jesus) cleansed people’s understanding, purged their imagination–an exorcism so that the people, clear-eyed on the matter of God’s sovereign authority, would be able to embrace salvation without distraction, without clutter. — Eugene Peterson
- Zeal of Jesus, Zeal of God
- Zeal of Martin Luther King, Jr — “justice too long delayed is justice denied”
- Everything around you can be house of God — “When you are on a bus, you don’t have to think this is a bus, this could be the house of God” (people laughed, but I don’t think it’s meant to be funny)
