Sometimes it takes more than soap and water to clean something. Jesus uses some “elbow grease” to drive home his point about what God approves and disapproves. Jesus has consistently attacked the fences placed by those who would limit the area of God's concern. If the mercy of God is not be constrained by the Sabbath then neither should the justice of God be practiced anywhere other than everywhere, so beginning by clearing a path right in God's house makes sense.
Where is your elbow grease needed to clean an area to welcome God's justice?
