How Jesus disrupted the salvation economy
What does it mean that the first thing Jesus does in Jerusalem is march into the Temple and mess up the economy of sacrifices by which the temple priests mediate the people’s forgiveness from God? What does it mean that the Savior arrives as an anti-emperor and an anti-priest?
