Jesus PERSONALLY whipped the money lenders who were violating Hebrew laws & violating the sanctity of the Temple.
Whipped them with a scourge. And wasn't stopped by their security either, which would have been formidable. They had lots of coins & were hated by nearly everyone, they must have had a small army protecting them!
Stop breaking the law, assholes!
Enforcing the law is not persecution. I wish they'd stop conflating the two.
