John 2:16 in Context — John 2
14 Y halló en el templo á los que vendían bueyes, y ovejas, y palomas, y á los cambiadores sentados.
15 Y hecho un azote de cuerdas, echólos á todos del templo, y las ovejas, y los bueyes; y derramó los dineros de los cambiadores, y trastornó las mesas;
16 Y á los que vendían las palomas, dijo: Quitad de aquí esto, y no hagáis la casa de mi Padre casa de mercado.
17 Entonces se acordaron sus discípulos que está escrito: El celo de tu casa me comió.
18 Y los Judíos respondieron, y dijéronle: ¿Qué señal nos muestras de que haces esto?
