Holy Monday. The day after the triumphal entry, Jesus walked into the Temple and flipped the tables of the money changers.
“My house shall be called a house of prayer — you have made it a den of thieves.” (Matthew 21:13)
The money changers held a monopoly. They set the exchange rates. They debased the coinage. They extracted rent from worshippers.
