125:1.1 Everywhere [[Jesus]] went throughout the [[temple]] [[courts]], he was [[shocked]] and sickened by the [[spirit]] of irreverence which he [[observed]]. He deemed the [[conduct]] of the temple throngs to be inconsistent with their [[presence]] in " his Father's house. "[https://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Gospel_of_john#Chapter_2] But he received the [[shock]] of his [[young life]] when his [[father]] escorted him into the [[court]] of the [[gentiles]] with its noisy [[jargon]], loud talking and cursing, mingled indiscriminately with the bleating of sheep and the babble of [[noises]] which betrayed the [[presence]] of the [[money]]-changers and the vendors of [[sacrificial]] animals and sundry other [[commercial]] [[commodities]].

125:1.2 But most of all was his sense of [[propriety]] outraged by the [[sight]] of the frivolous [[courtesans]] parading about within this precinct of the [[temple]], just such painted [[women]] as he had so recently seen when on a visit to [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sepphoris Sepphoris]. This [[profanation]] of the [[temple]] fully aroused all his [[youthful]] [[indignation]], and he did not hesitate to [[express]] himself freely to [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saint_Joseph Joseph].

125:1.3 [[Jesus]] admired the sentiment and [[service]] of the [[temple]], but he was [[shocked]] by the [[spiritual]] ugliness which he beheld on the faces of so many of the unthinking [[worshipers]].

The bloodstained pavement, the gory hands of the [[priests]], and the sounds of the dying [[animals]] were more than this [[nature]]-loving lad could stand. The terrible [[sight]] sickened this boy of [[Nazareth]]; he clutched his father's arm and begged to be taken away. They walked back through the [[court]] of the [[gentiles]], and even the coarse [[laughter]] and [[profane]] jesting which he there heard were a relief from the sights he had just beheld.
