Who were the money changers Jesus drove from the temple?

Washington DC

Description

They were basically very dishonest business people who were ripping off The People. Very similar to Trump University that got shut down for fraud and Trump's fake charity that got shut down because he was stealing from it. "These same money changers were associated with others who engaged in shady business practices in the temple courts. Some sold sacrificial animals, overcharging people who did not bring their own. Others were in charge of examining the animals to be sacrificed, and it was a simple matter to declare an animal “unapproved” and force the worshiper to buy another animal—at an inflated price—from the temple vendors. Such goings-on, exploiting the poor and the foreigner, angered the Lord Jesus and was strictly forbidden in the Mosaic Law (Exodus 22:21; Leviticus 19:34)." https://www.gotquestions.org/money-changers-in-the-Bible.html
