Context — The Cleansing of the Templegenerated
Luke 19:45 describes Jesus entering the temple courts and beginning to drive out those who were selling there. This act is significant as it demonstrates Jesus' authority and His concern for the sanctity of the temple, which is meant to be a house of prayer. This event is also recorded in the other Gospels, such as in Matthew 21:12-13 and Mark 11:15-17, highlighting its importance in Jesus' ministry.

The Key Word — ἐκβάλλειν, ekballōgenerated
The verb ἐκβάλλω (*ekballō*) means 'to cast out' or 'to expel'. It is composed of the prefix ἐκ (out) and βάλλω (to throw). This word conveys a strong action of driving out, often associated with authority, as seen in contexts involving demons or unclean practices.
In this passage, the use of ἐκβάλλειν indicates Jesus' decisive action against those who were profaning the temple by selling goods. The present active infinitive form emphasizes the ongoing nature of this action, suggesting a forceful and immediate response to the situation.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
The verse is rendered in the Berean Standard Bible as 'Then Jesus entered the temple courts and began to drive out those who were selling there.' This is consistent across several translations.
However, some versions differ in their word choices. The KJV uses 'cast out' while the ASV opts for 'cast out them that sold'. The YLT includes 'cast forth those selling in it', and the WEB states 'drive out those who bought and sold in it'. These variations reflect different nuances in the translation of the same Greek verb.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The main finite verb in the verse is ἤρξατο, He began, which governs the action of the sentence. It is followed by a participial phrase εἰσελθὼν (having entered) that describes the subject's action of entering the temple.
The structure includes a prepositional phrase ἐν τῷ ἱερῷ (in the temple) that indicates the location of the action, and a noun phrase τοὺς πωλοῦντας (those selling) as the object of the verb ἐκβάλλειν (to cast out), providing clarity on who is being driven out.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
ἐκβάλλω does not have a direct equivalent in the Septuagint, but the concept of casting out is present in the Hebrew word גָּרַשׁ (H1644), which also means to drive out or expel. This connection emphasizes the authority and action of removing those who do not belong in the sacred space.
The action of driving out in the temple context resonates with the themes found in the Old Testament, where purity and holiness in worship spaces were of utmost importance.
In plain words — the whole versegenerated
Luke 19:45 shows Jesus entering the temple courts and driving out those who were selling there. This act signifies His authority and the need for the temple to remain a holy place for worship.
Frequently Asked Questionsgenerated
Jesus drove out the sellers because they were profaning the temple, which was meant to be a house of prayer, as He emphasizes later in the passage.
This event demonstrates Jesus' authority over the temple and His role in restoring its sanctity, indicating that He is not just a teacher but has divine authority.
The actions of Jesus align with the Old Testament's emphasis on the holiness of worship spaces, reflecting God's desire for purity in worship, as seen in passages that discuss the proper conduct in the temple.
We learn the importance of maintaining reverence in places of worship and the need to address practices that detract from the sanctity of such spaces.

καί (kai) is a conjunction meaning 'and,' used to connect words, phrases, and clauses. It serves various functions, including copulative and adjunctive uses, and can express cumulative ideas like 'also' or 'even.' The New Testament frequently employs it to link terms and sentences, as seen in verses like Matthew 2:18 and John 10:3. Abbott-Smith notes its use in both simple and complex structures, while Thayer emphasizes its role as the most common particle in the New Testament.

εἰς is a preposition meaning 'into' or 'to,' used with the accusative case. It indicates direction, entrance, or limit, applicable to place, time, and figurative purposes. The New Testament frequently employs it to express movement toward locations or states, as seen in passages like Matthew 8:23. It can also denote relationships or results, such as 'for' or 'among.'

Property I. of Place, after verbs of going, coming, sailing, flying, falling, living, leading, carrying, throwing, sending, etc. ; 1. of a place entered, or of entrance into a place, into; and 8. it stands before nouns designating an open place, a hollow thing, or one in which an object can be hidden: as εἰς (τὴν) πόλιν, Mt. xxvi. 18; xxviii. 11; Mk. i. 45, and often; εἰς r. οἶκον, Mt. ix. 7; συναγωγήν, Acts xvii. 10; πλοῖον, Mt. viii. 23; Jn. vi. 17; Acts xxi. 6; θάλασσαν, Mt. xvii. 27; ἄβυσσον, Lk. viii. 31; οὐρανόν, Lk. ii. 15; κόσμον, In. 1. 9; iii. 19, ete.; τὰ ἴδια, Jn. i. 11; xvi. 32; Acts xxi. 6; ἀποθήκην, Mt. iii. 12; εἰς ra ὦτα, Lk. i. 44; εἰς τὰς ζώνας or ζώνην, Mt. x. 9; Mk. vi. 8, etc.; εἰς ἀέρα, 1 Co. xiv. 9; eis πῦρ, Mk. ix. 22, ete.…

The definite article — the commonest word in the Greek New Testament at 19,867 occurrences. Greek uses it more freely than English does and can drop it deliberately, so its presence and its absence both carry weight for a translator; but no single occurrence carries a message of its own. Here it simply gathers “the things” into one definite bundle.

THE, an adjective or definitive adjective.
1. This adjective is used as a definitive, that is, before nouns which are specific or understood; or it is used to limit their signification to a specific thing or things, or to describe them; as the laws of the twelve tables. the independent tribunals of justice in our country, are the security or private rights, and the best bulwark against arbitrary power. the sun is the source of light and heat.
This he calls the preaching of the cross.
2. the is also used rhetorically before a noun in the singular number, to denote a species by way of distinction; a single thing representing the whole. the fig tree putteth forth her green figs; the almond tree shall flourish; the grasshopper shall be a burden.
3. In poetry, the sometimes loses the final vowel before another vowel.
Th' adorning thee with so much art,

The Greek word ἱερόν (i.e., *hieron*) refers to a temple or sacred place, specifically the entire precincts of a temple, as opposed to the inner sanctuary. It is derived from the adjective ἱερός (*hieros*), meaning holy or sacred. In the New Testament, it appears frequently in the Gospels and Acts, indicating various parts of the temple in Jerusalem, including its courts and surrounding areas.
WE have in our Version only the one word ‘temple’ for both of these; nor is it easy to perceive in what manner we could have marked the distinction between them; which is yet a very real one, and one the marking of which would often add much to the clearness and precision of the sacred narrative (see Fuller, A Pisgah Sight of Palestine, p. 427). ὑἹερόν (=templum) is the whole com8ὃπι.:.

Temple
First used of the tabernacle, which is called “the temple of the Lord” (1 Sam. 1:9). In the New Testament the word is used figuratively of Christ’s human body (John 2:19, 21). Believers are called “the temple of God” (1 Cor. 3:16, 17). The Church is designated “an holy temple in the Lord” (Eph. 2:21). Heaven is also called a temple (Rev. 7:5). We read also of the heathen “temple of the great goddess Diana” (Acts 19:27).
There is perhaps no building of the ancient world which has excited so much attention since the time of its destruction as the temple which Solomon built by Herod. Its spoils were considered worthy of forming the principal illustration of one of the most beautiful of Roman triumphal arches, and Justinian’s highest architectural ambition was that he might surpass it. Throughout the middle ages it influenced to a considerable degree the forms of Christian churches, and its peculiarities were the watchwords and rallying-points of all associations of builders. When the French expedition to Egypt, int he first years of this century, had made the world familiar with the wonderful architectural remains of that country, every one jumped to the conclusion that Solomon’s temple must have been designed after an Egyptian model. The discoveries in Assyria by Botta and Layard have within the last…
A building hallowed by the special presence of God, and consecrated to his worship. The distinctive idea of a temple, contrasted with all other buildings, is that it is the dwelling-place of a deity; and every heathen temple had its idol, but the true and living God dwelt "between the cherubim" in the Holy of Holies at Jerusalem. Hence, figuratively applied, a temple denotes the church of Christ, 2Th 2:4 Re 3:12; heaven, Ps 11:4 Re 7:15; and the soul of the believer, in which the Holy Spirit dwells, 1Co 3:16,17 6:19 2Co 6:16.

The Greek word ἄρχω (*archō*) primarily means 'to begin' or 'to rule.' It can denote the act of starting something, often with a genitive case, or the authority to lead or govern. In the New Testament, it appears in contexts related to leadership (e.g., Mark 10:42) and beginning actions (e.g., Matthew 4:17). The lexicons do not show significant disagreement on its meanings.

The Greek word ἐκβάλλω, transliterated as ekballō, is composed of the prefix ἐκ (out) and βάλλω (to throw). It means to drive out, cast out, or expel, and is used in various contexts, including banishing individuals or sending forth. In the New Testament, it appears in passages like Matthew 15:17 and Mark 1:12, often relating to the expulsion of demons or sending out workers.

πωλέω (pōleō) means to sell or barter, derived from a root suggesting trade. It appears in various contexts in the New Testament, such as in Luke 17:28 and Revelation 13:17, often referring to the act of selling goods or property. The lexicons agree on its primary meaning, with no significant disagreement noted.
πωλέω, -ῶ,
[in LXX chiefly for מכר;]
to exchange or barter.
πωλέω, -&; imp. ἐπώλουν; 1 aor. ἐπώλησα ; pres. pass. πωλοῦμαι; (πέλω, πέλομαι, to turn, turn about, [Curtius § 633 p. 470], fr. which [through the noun πωλή; Lod. in Bttm. Ausf. Spr. ii. 57 bot.] πωλοῦμαι, Lat. versor, foll. by εἰς with acc. of place, to frequent a place; ef. the Lat. venio and veneo); fr. Hdt. down; Sept. for 720; prop. to barter, i. 6. to sell: absol.

πωλέω. From meaning originally ‘‘put up for sale’’ (sendzfo) πωλέω came to mean simply ‘‘sell” (endo). This later sense, which alone is found in the NT, can be fully illustrated from the papyri, e.g. PSI IV. 3567 (B.c. 253-2) οὐθεὶς οὖν ἐν τοῖς τόποις πωλεῖ πρὸς σῖτον, ἀλλὰ πρὸς ἀργύριον, P Ryl LL. 1138 (Δ.1.133) μόλις πάντα τὰ ἐμαυτοῦ πωλήσας ἐδυνήθην πληρῶσαι, “I was with difficulty able to complete this by selling all my property ” (cf.

constructively), i.e. a relation of rest (intermediate between 1519
and 1537); "in," at, (up-)on, by, etc.:--about, after, against, +
almost, X altogether, among, X as, at, before, between, (here-)by (+
all means), for (... sake of), + give self wholly to, (here-)in(-to,

X shortly, (speedi-)ly, X that, X there(-in, -on),
through(-out), (un-)to(-ward), under, when, where(-with), while,
with(-in). Often used in compounds, with substantially the same
import; rarely with verbs of motion, and then not to indicate
direction, except (elliptically) by a separate (and different)
preposition.

PREP PREPosition
A principal thing to notice about this preposition, which in the King James Version represents about 16 Hebrew and as many Greek words and prepositions, is that, in hundreds of cases (especially in the Old Testament, but frequently also in the New Testament) in the Revised Version (British and American) the rendering is changed to more exact forms ("to," "unto," "by," "upon," "at," "with," "among," "for," "throughout," etc.; compare e.g. Ge 6:16; 13:8; 17:7,9,12; 18:1; Ex 8:17; Le 1:9, etc.); while, nearly as often, "in" is substituted for divergent forms of the King James Version (e.g. Ge 2:14; 17:11; 31:54; 40:7; 49:17; Ex…

αὐτός is a pronoun meaning 'self' or 'the same,' used to emphasize distinction or opposition. It can function as a reflexive pronoun and appears frequently in the New Testament, often in contexts that highlight contrast or identity, such as in Luke 5:37 and John 2:25. The entries indicate that it can also be used in various grammatical constructions, including with articles to denote sameness.

καί (kai) is a conjunction meaning 'and,' used to connect words, phrases, and clauses. It serves various functions, including copulative and adjunctive uses, and can express cumulative ideas like 'also' or 'even.' The New Testament frequently employs it to link terms and sentences, as seen in verses like Matthew 2:18 and John 10:3. Abbott-Smith notes its use in both simple and complex structures, while Thayer emphasizes its role as the most common particle in the New Testament.

The Greek word ἀγοράζω (i.e., *agorazō*) means to buy or purchase, particularly in a market context. It can also imply redeeming or acquiring something at a price. In the New Testament, it appears in various forms, such as in Matthew 21:12 and Revelation 5:9, where it conveys both literal and metaphorical meanings of buying or redeeming.

Counted over the 14 Old Testament verses where this Greek word stands: which Hebrew word keeps standing there too. A correspondence of verses rather than a word-by-word alignment, so read the percentage as strength of evidence, not as a claim about any single verse.
