>I do know how the passage has been used to defame Jews historically.
I understand that you think that, but it seems to me that the overall impression of the post was very positive, and there was no intention to defame anyone.
>The passage takes place in the Temple where the Jews are, so the moneychangers are likely to be Jews and could lead readers to think of Jews in a disparaging manner as {loving money while others went without}.
To be honest Lou, if you weren't so insistent on drawing attention to it, I don't think anyone would be thinking anything about Jews at all.
You seem quite paranoid. I hope you are not suffering.
