did Jesus turn the other cheek when he overturned the money changer tables in the temple? turn the other cheek is merely a convenient way to avoid standing up for good, confronting evil.

At the time this happened, the temple was holy...but through Jesus' death and ressurection, the curtain of the holy of holies was ripped in two and it symolized that we have access to God through Christ and not some building. Come on people. When we make anything material "holy" we are making it an "idol" and Christ forbids that...
