Matthew 21:10
Douay-Rheims
And when he was come into Jerusalem, the whole city was moved, saying: Who is this?
John Chrysostom (attributed)
For this reason also He overturns the tables of the money-changers, to signify that in the temple of God ought to be no coin save spiritual, such as bears the image of God, not an earthly image. He overturns the seats of those that sold doves, saying by that deed, What make in My temple so many doves for sale, since that one Dove descended of free gift upon the temple of My Body? What the multitude had proclaimed by their shouts, the Lord shews in deeds; whence it follows, And the blind and the lame came to him in the temple, and he healed them.
