Subject: Is it ok to sell books or eat in church. |
Bible Note: Maybe the lesson is about who is going to profit from the sales? Many churches and ministries rely on fund raisers. These services benefited some Jews, making them better equipped to worship. It was a convenience for them. However, conducting business in the temple detracted from the holiness of the temple and the worship of God. |
