Question

Read the passage below and answer the question.

To fill the Lord's holy temple with an idolatrous crowd clamoring for signs was a folly of everlasting consequence. Our Lord used the whip only once in His life – to drive the crowd away from His church.
The passage above is a reference to _____.
A.) Jesus at the Last Supper
B.) God's testing of Job
C.) Jesus driving the moneylenders out
D.) the episode with the burning bush

Answer 1

C.) Jesus driving the moneylenders out

Answer 2

ANSWER: C. Jesus driving the moneylenders out.

The passage tells us about our Lord using His "whip" to drive away a crowd inside a church. This incident refers to the time when he had to shoo moneylenders who were inside the temple courts.

The other choices speak of events which are far from the described scene. Jesus didn't need to drive away anyone in the other situations.
